Fit Virus

Sean‘s pick this week is fitVirus by milan batista

I hope you and your family remain safe and healthy over the coming weeks.

This unfortunate situation does provide interesting data to be analyzed. Milan has provided a set of functions with corresponding live script documents to study and predict the COVID-19 infection rates with a logistic regression.

Here is the plot for the regression applied to South Korea. You can see the logistic regression estimate from the previous dates and how well those line up with the actual infection rates and that Korea is currently transitioning out of the rapid rise of infections.

Comparing this with Italy, we can see that milan’s model is estimating the rapid rise will continue for awhile longer.

The current state of Italy also compares well to the current state of the whole world outside of China.

As for some subtle things to make this easier for milan:

  • The data are being entered in the MATLAB *.m files themselves using a construct we call “data as code”. It might make more sense to just store the data in a CSV file and read that in with readtable. All data could be stored in one file and the corresponding variable extracted as necessary. I think this would make updating it easier too.
  • Since milan is keeping this current(!) it might make sense to link the repository to GitHub so a simple git commit/push would do the update rather than having to go through the File Exchange. It would also allow anyone to go to a previous state and see the record from that time.

Comments

Give it a try and let us know what you think here or leave a comment for milan.
