Abstract
OBJECTIVE: The clinical course of COVID-19, as well as the immunological reaction, is notable for its extreme variability. Identifying the main associated factors might help understand the disease progression and physiological status of COVID-19 patients. The dynamic changes of the antibody against Spike protein are crucial for understanding the immune response. This work explores a temporal attention (TA) mechanism of deep learning to predict COVID-19 disease severity, clinical outcomes, and Spike antibody levels by screening serological indicators over time.
