A number of different linear regression models were compared using model orders of lag time, and best model is selected using Akaike Information Criterion (AIC) value. First, dengue estimation models were built for Petaling district using weather variables of mean temperature, relative humidity, cumulative rainfall, and dengue feedback data. The best estimation model is then used to build dengue prediction models, using the k-steps ahead prediction (with one and multiple-step ahead predictions). One-step ahead prediction model was found to capture well pattern of dengue incidences. This information is believed to help health authorities in providing a reminder alarm to the public through medias, on precautions specifically against mosquitoes bites, especially when dengue occurrences is expected to be high. © 2017 IEEE. publisher: Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. date: 2017 type: Conference or Workshop Item type: PeerReviewed identifier: Thiruchelvam, L. and Asirvadam, V.S. and Dass, S.C. and Daud, H. and Gill, B.S.
