In this study, the ANN approach was applied to
analyze COVID-19 deaths in the Czech Republic. The employed data covers the
period 1 January 2020 to 20 April 2021 and the out-of-sample period ranges over
the period 21 April 2021 to 31 August 2021. The residuals and forecast
evaluation criteria (Error, MSE and MAE) of the applied model indicate that the
model is quite stable. The results of the study indicate that daily COVID-19
deaths in Czech Republic likely to remain high over the out-of-sample period.
Therefore there is need for the Czech Republic to ensure adherence to safety guidelines while continuing to create awareness about
the COVID-19 pandemic and to also speed up COVID-19 vaccination.
