Outline

We aim to achieve detection of premonitory signs and real-time forecasting of pandemic, thereby elucidating the most effective countermeasures. Analyzing big data, we will (i) develop a prediction model of an epidemic, (ii) establish a risk model of premonitory signs of a pandemic, and (iii) take advantages of early detection and forecasts in infectious disease control. Early detection and forecasting will be practicalized in our daily life.
