Modeling the Impact of Public Traffic on COVID-19 Spread Rates in Germany

Forschungspraxis project on traffic network reconstruction in the wake of COVID-19. This repository holds all information related to the Forschungspraxis project offered by LSR.

Abstract

This report builds on the idea of the networked SEIR model to recover pandemic spread parameters and apply the identified model for simulation/prediction of pandemic activity based on COVID-19 case data, public transport schedule information and estimated mobility behavior of a population. A data-driven methodology to the problems of transient network structure recovery and time-varying strength of adjacency estimation is presented. A case study on German data is implemented and the resulting models’ performances are evaluated numerically and graphically.
