Cook County Data is located in the cook-county directory. Running extract_dataset.py will recreate the necessary files
Massachusetts data is unable to be shared, but our cleaning scripts are included in the massachusetts directory
Most models are located in the experiment-runner directory, and running recreate_table.py will re-create the results from Table 1
CASTNet, the Bayesian spatiotemporal model, and the negative binomial regression are more complex to run, and reside in their own directories
