Question 1

1. Filter keywords from Microblogs texting

I chose observed symptoms as keywords to filter out related Microblogs by using JMP. The observed symptoms contain chills, sweats, aches and pains, fatigue, coughing, breathing difficulty, nausea and vomiting, diarrhea, and enlarged lymph nodes. I use the symptom-related keywords and frequency of these words to improve accuracy.
