Use the package manager conda to install required Python dependencies. Note: We used Python 3.7.

conda env create -f requirements.yml

The following command will train and predict for all regions from epidemic week 202036 to 202109:

python main.py --region AL --dev cpu --exp 400 --start_ew 202036 --end_ew 202109 --step 2

More examples can be found in run.sh.

You can set up your own model hyperparameter values (e.g. learning rate, loss weights) in the file ./setup/EINN-params.json.
