Table reports the r 2, the correlation between observed dengue incidence and model fitted values, and the Akaike information criterion (AIC) for the full and step-down models in both Singapore and Bangkok. Table also reports correlation between observed 2010 dengue incidence and out-of-sample 2010 predictions from the step-down models for Singapore and Bangkok for unlagged observed incidence and observed incidence lagged by 4 weeks.
