COVID-19 DETECTOR


Introduction

Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by a new virus. The disease causes respiratory illness (like the flu) with symptoms such as a cough, fever, and in more severe cases, difficulty breathing. You can protect yourself by washing your hands frequently, avoiding touching your face, and avoiding close contact (1 meter or 3 feet) with people who are unwell.


Idea

The idea is to stop the transmission by prioritizing tests and hence detecting the cases quickly.


Model

  • A machine learning model is trained on the data to findout the probability of person having the infection.
  • The model is then used to find out whom to test for infection first under a limited testing capacity.

Machine learning parameters

  • Sample set of parameters are as follow:
  • Features:
    • Fever - Continuous
    • Body Pain - Binary(0/1)
    • Age - Discrete
    • Runny Nose - Binary(0/1)
    • Difficulty breathing - Categorical(-1/0/1)
  • Labels:
    • Probability of COVID-19 infection
