Exploring Polynomial, Fractional Polynomial, and Spline Models
The ability to accurately model and interpret complex data sets is paramount. This technical exploration delves into three sophisticated modelling techniques: Polynomial Models, Fractional Polynomials, and Spline Models. Each of these models serves as a fundamental tool in the statistical toolkit, enabling us to capture and understand the intricacies of linear and non-linear relationships inherent in real-world data.

How hard is it to predict COVID-19 cases?
tl;dr Many different variables affect how the pandemic progresses and it is extremely difficult to identify each one, and precisely measure them. The data we have is surely innacurate, but could be a good proxy for understanding the behaviour of the coronavirus outbreak We developed a statistical model to obtain short-term forecasts of the number of COVID-19 cases We constantly update forecasts and make all results freely available to any country in the world through a web app How many people will get infected tomorrow?
