Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Tuberculosis (Tuberculosis, TB) is a public health problem in China, which not only endangers the population's health but also affects economic and social development. It requires an accurate prediction analysis to help to make policymakers with early warning and provide effective precautionary measures. In this study, ARIMA, GM(1,1), and LSTM models were constructed and compared, respectively. The results showed that the LSTM was the optimal model, which can be achieved satisfactory performance for TB cases predictions in mainland China.
