As the COVID-19 pandemic spread worldwide, it has become clearer that prevalence of
certain comorbidities in a given population could make it more vulnerable to serious outcomes
of that disease, including fatality. Indeed, it might be insightful from a health policy perspective
to identify clusters of populations in terms of the associations between their prevalent
comorbidities and the observed COVID-19 specific death rates. In this study, we described a
mixture of polynomial time series (MoPTS) model to simultaneously identify (a) three clusters
of 86 U.S. cities in terms of their dynamic death rates, and (b) the different associations of
those rates with 5 key comorbidities among the populations in the clusters. We also described
an EM algorithm for efficient maximum likelihood estimation of the model parameters.
