Abstract

Zika virus is spreaded by mosquito. There is high probability of Microcephaly. In 1947, the virus was first found from Uganda, but it has broken outall around world, specially North and south America. So, apriori algorithm and decision tree were used to compare polyprotein sequences of zika virus among other flavivirus; Yellow fever, West Nile virus, Dengue virus, Tick borne encephalitis. By this, dissimilarity and similarity about them were found.

Highlights

  • Today Zika virus is being a very big problem

  • Vaccines exist for yellow fever and dengue virus [4, 5] but other viruses don't have vaccine

  • Materials we used in the experiment are flaviviruses ; Zika Virus, West Nile Virus, Yellow Fever Virus, Tick Borne Encephalitis, and Dengue Virus

Summary

Introduction

Today Zika virus is being a very big problem. In Brazil, more than 1.5 million people have become infected since April, 2015. Zika virus arose in many countries like Malaysia, Micronesia, and Tahiti island in the South Pacific. In recent 2 months, Zika virus has been found in about 39 countries. Because of zika virus, few people died [3]. Zika virus, and other viruses (like west nile virus, yellow fever, tick borne encephalitis, and dengue virus) are fatal to people. There is no specific treatment of the viruses. Vaccines exist for yellow fever and dengue virus [4, 5] but other viruses (west nile virus, tick borne encephalitis, and zika virus) don't have vaccine. This is why we are doing this experiment. By using apriori algorithm and decision tree, we are able to expect to find out the possibility of a treatment that is effective to them
