Özet:

The Covid-19, which quickly turned into a pandemic, has not yet been fully controlled despite the vaccines developed. The nearly two-year period of struggling with the pandemic has caused a global economic crisis. Many countries have lifted the restrictions they have applied in the fight against the pandemic to get rid of this crisis. Despite the vaccines, the pandemic still poses a great danger, and it remains unclear when both the pre-pandemic life can be returned, and the economic crisis can be brought under control. For this reason, the correct analysis of the picture that emerged in line with the policies followed so far is still an essential problem in accurately predicting the future course of the pandemic. In this study, Covid-19 estimation is made with Auto Regressive Integrated Moving Average and Long-Short-Term Memory models using daily case and death numbers for Germany, France, Italy, Ireland, Poland, Russia, and Turkey. Root mean square error, mean absolute percentage error, mean absolute error, Adjusted R2, Akaike Information Criterion, and Schwarz Information Criterion metrics are used in model selection. The results showed that Auto Regressive Integrated Moving Average and Long-Short-Term Memory models could be used to predict the number of COVID-19 deaths and cases. Furthermore, it has been seen that the prediction success of the Long-Short-Term Memory models for the countries considered is higher than the Auto Regressive Integrated Moving Average models.
