Forecasting of Medical Waste Generation Amount Based on GM (1, n) Model

Article Preview

Abstract:

This article first applied correlation analysis to identify the key factors in factors influencing people's medical service demands, such as the population, economy and people's living level and so on. Then, it built the forecast model of the medical waste generation amount based on the GM (1, n). finally, it took Dalian city as an example for empirical study. The results show the forecast method has higher accuracy, and it is a useful method for the prediction of the medical waste generation amount.
