Between 2010 and 2021, fentanyl and stimulants co-involved deaths increased from 0.6% to 32.3% of all overdose deaths in the U.S. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention monitors overdose deaths, but reports are delayed by about 4 -6 months. Therefore, advanced methods are needed for optimized trend monitoring and preparing the healthcare system. We developed and compared traditional and machine learning (ML)-based time series prediction models for forecasting opioid and stimulant-involve...
