Modeling the COVID-19 Outbreak in China through Multi-source Information Fusion
Modeling the outbreak of a novel epidemic, such as coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), is crucial for estimating its dynamics, predicting future spread and evaluating the effects of different interventions. However, there are three issues that make this modeling a challenging task: uncertainty in d...
