Identification of COVID-19 Can be Quicker through Artificial Intelligence framework using a Mobile Phone-Based Survey in the Populations when Cities/Towns Are Under Quarantine

Submitted by ace_modelers on

We are proposing to use machine learning algorithms to be able to improve possible case identifications of COVID-19 more quicker when we use a mobile phone-based web survey. This will also reduce the spread in the susceptible populations.

Level of under-reporting including under-diagnosis before the first peak of COVID-19 in various countries: Preliminary Retrospective Results Based on Wavelets and Deterministic Modeling

Submitted by ace_modelers on

We have estimated under-reporting of coronavirus until March 9, 2020, in various countries until the first peak occurred in each of the countries that have reported 500 or more cases of COVID-19 as of March 9, 2020. Our retrospective model-based estimations of under-reporting (including those due to under-diagnosis) will be helpful in the assessment of pandemic preparedness required.

NSF 20-052: Dear Colleague Letter on the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19)

Dear Colleague,In light of the emergence and spread of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in the United States and abroad, the National Science Foundation (NSF) is accepting proposals to conduct non-medical, non-clinical-care research that can be used immediately to explore how to model and understand the spread of COVID-19, to inform and educate about the science of virus transmission and prevention, and to encourage the development of processes and actions to address this global challenge.

Webinar: The role of applied math in real-time pandemic response: How basic disease models work

It's not normally instantly obvious what mathematicians do. It's also not normal to be able to use middle-school math to help try to save the world. Right now, things are not normal. Join us for "The role of applied math in real-time pandemic response: How basic disease models work" for a presentation about how very simple, middle-school math (and much fancier versions of the same thing) can help us fight COVID-19.
