Overview of the model evaluation process, illustrating the endemic channel, observed and predicted hospitalized dengue cases, outbreak weeks (when number of cases exceeds the endemic channel), the generated probability of the number of cases to exceed the endemic channel and, the alarm signals which indicate when the probability of an outbreak crosses the cut-off, warranting for a possibly disease outbreak in the forthcoming period (here is 12 weeks ahead of the prediction week).
