Parameter Based Literature Survey of COVID-19 Mortality Dynamics Using Machine Learning Techniques

The pandemic COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) known as the coronavirus is spreading at a very alarming rate in the world which is quite a threatening situation. In terms of disease presentation, the global epidemic COVID-19 can be traced to the ancestral influenza viruses. COVID-19 outbreak is a very perturbing situation for the high rate of mortality as reported in recent studies. The mortality and morbidity rates have always been a concerning issue in the determination of the scale of epidemics. These mortality rate predictions subsume an interesting factor within them i.e. variance of mortality rates across regions. The advancement in machine learning-based tools is a vital component corresponding to addressing the “heterogeneity in fatality rates”. This review envelopes the recent developments in mortality rate predictions for COVID-19. The review helps in gaining an insight into Spatio-temporal mortality dynamics which will be fruitful with reference to future control-strategy implementation. By observing the Spatio-temporal pattern of mortality dynamics, the inter-dependence of various factors can be explored, and hence, mortality rates can be reduced in the upcoming time.
