Model 1: Google mobility; Model 2: Google mobility and temperature; Model 3: Google mobility, temperature, and risk awareness; RMSE: root-mean-square error

Each value describes the estimated parameters of three different models and their 95% confidence intervals derived by maximum likelihood estimation and Laplace approximation normal distribution. Predictive performances of each model were compared using three measures (root-mean-square error, ranked probability score, and Dawid-Sebastiani score) and by summing estimates of four regions in Japan (prefectures for the training data — Osaka, Tokyo, Aichi, and Hokkaido).
