Show abstract
Tracking known influenza-like illnesses, such as influenza, is an important problem in public health and clinical medicine. The problem is complicated by the clinical similarity and co-occurrence of many of these illnesses. Additionally, detecting a new or reemergent disease, such as COVID-19, is of paramount importance as recent history has shown. This paper describes the testing of a system that tracks known influenza-like illnesses and can detect the presence of a novel disease. (This manuscript is a preprint and has not been peer reviewed.)

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
