      Chapter 13, “Prevalence of the Internet of Things in a Pandemic,” presents an overview of IoT-driven systems in the healthcare sector for monitoring patients. Implementation of such technology will help to decrease healthcare expenses and enhance treatment of infected patients.

      Chapter 14, “Mathematical Insights into COVID-19 Infection: A Modeling Approach,” discusses the increasing use of mathematics in epidemic disease research. The complexity of disease is appropriate for quantitative methodologies as it allows for in-depth probing of issues and the probability of a new turn of events. Computational models can supplement exploratory and clinical investigations, and can also challenge flow standards, reclassify our comprehension of systems driving epidemiology and shape future research.

      Chapter 15, “Machine Learning: A Tool to Combat COVID-19,” proposes a model that uses ML approaches based on the analysis of data of two Indian states—Delhi and Maharashtra—where the maximum number of infected cases are found. This study is an attempt to help improve decision-makers planning and actions. In this study, neural network (NN) and M5P model trees are applied to forecast the number of infected cases with each progressive day.

      In conclusion, the editors believe that readers will find that the efforts of all the contributing authors will enhance their research needs in various disciplines. It will also open up new opportunities and avenues by exploring different ways of dealing with unforeseen sudden changes in our environment. Overall, every effort has been made to present a book that acts as an encyclopedia of the current state of practice in the domain and also furnish investigative knowledge on future technologies which will promote human evolution and provide a framework for innovative resolutions to real-world problems. Happy learning!

       Abstract

      The whole world is struggling to live with COVID-19 and even a single step of technology revolution can help in dealing with this pandemic. Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning approaches are being used by the researchers around the globe to completely understand and address this situation. In this Corona crisis, companies are trying to implement this AI and ML techniques in various fields ranging from manufacturing, resource management, remote monitoring etc. On the other hand, ML approach is being used by the researchers for supporting healthcare related issues arisen due to COVID-19.

      1.1.1 COVID-19 and its Various Transmission Stages Depending Upon the Severity of the Problem

      COVID-19 is a contagious disease and can transmit through touch, contact or droplets of infected person. This transmission of COVID-19 is divided into 4 stages as:

      1st Stage: During 1st stage infection spread across the countries. People with travel history of foreign countries are being tested for this virus. There is no local transmission at this stage so the possibility of number of patients suffering from disease remains quite low.

      2nd Stage: At this stage the infection occurs locally and transmits through the infected patients of stage 1. In this stage along with the testing of the suspected patient, the source of the infection has also been identified to get him separate out from the entire community. The number of patients increases at this stage, though is not very difficult to manage. Social distancing is the best option to remain in stage 2 for avoiding further spread of the infection.

Graph depicts the confirmed cases in top 3 countries in the number of cases.

      4th Stage: This stage is the most risky and deadly stage of this pandemic because infection transmits in the form of batches in the entire city or country. A large number of population gets infected during this stage irrespective of their age and immunity. The death cases also get increased during this stage and old age people and people with low immunity become the most affected patients from this disease. It becomes very difficult or almost impossible to control the spread the virus at this stage.
