cov19 0.0.9

Prediction for the spread of COVID-19 using Epidemiological Models

Prediction for the spread of COVID-19 using Epidemiological Models

The purpose of the cov19 package is to integrate the differential equations of epidemiological models and adjust their respective parameters with data using MCMC approach.

1. Getting Started

Dependencies

You need Python 3.7 or later to use cov19. You can find it at python.org. You also need setuptools, wheel and twine packages, which is available from PyPI. If you have pip, just run:

pip install pandas
pip install pygtc
pip install setuptools
pip install tqdm

Installation

Clone this repo to your local machine using:

git clone https://github.com/emdemor/cov19

2. Features

• Support for different epidemiological models
• Monte Carlo Markov Chains (MCMC) approach to fit patameters
• Data from multiple trusted and reliable sources compiled by Microsoft and accessible in www.bing.com/covid.

3. Results

The main result in this version is to plot de curves from the model for a specific parameter vector and compare this with dataset. In covid/stat.py, functions has been implemented to generate an MCMC sample, through which it will be possible to make inferences of the parametric intervals.

4. Dataset

Here, we are using the Microsoft Data, from the repo https://github.com/microsoft/Bing-COVID-19-Data. ]
