Abstract

Dengue fever (DF) and dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) are vector borne disease which is notifiable diseases in Malaysia since 1974. Early notification is essential for control measures as delayed notification will lead to further occurrences of outbreak cases. In this study we identify the number of attributes to be used in determining outbreaks rather than using only case counts. The experiment is conducted using multiple attribute value based on Apriori concept. The outcomes are promising when we can identify more than one attributes showing similar graph in vector-borne diseases outbreaks. Our methods also outperform in term of detection rate, false positive rate and overall performance. We prove through our experiment that more than one attributes can be used to better detect outbreaks.
