Google's Secret Algorithm for Predicting Flu Trends

The algorithm, the secret algorithm that Google flu trends have is like a big kenga that can hardly change its course. If you ignore the past and just relay on the most recent data points, you can follow a certain trend immediately. That's kind of logic. The interesting thing was that after this swine flu, the Google engineers revised the algorithm. And under predicted the amount of flu related doctorations. So in that case, if it's a complex world that is highly uncertain, then make it simple.That's the lesson to learn for you in years.
