Application of New TOPSIS Approach to Identify the Most Significant Risk Factor and Continuous Monitoring of Death of COVID-19

Abstract

A pandemic is a disease that spreads across a large area like multiple continents or worldwide. More than 211 nations are already affected by Covid-19. The World Health Organization (WHO) on 11 March 2020 declared Covid-19 a pandemic. There are more than 1,282,931 cases of the coronavirus illness over 211 countries and territories around the world. Currently coronavirus has no proper treatment in Medical Science, increasing the number of affected people day by day with the number of cases worldwide of novel coronavirus surpassing 1,282,931, with some 72,616 deaths approximately. That is why the main objective of the present investigation is to identify the significant risk factor. Also, in this study we are continuously monitoring the spread of coronavirus. In this study we use a new TOPSIS MCDM approach and GMDH apply to select the significant risk factor and continuous monitoring of death due to Covid-19. Result indicates that "contamination due to contact with the infected person" is the main responsible factor behind the pandemic COVID-19. Also, in this investigation we get an optimal model by which we can monitor the death from Coronavirus within the affected person continuously.

Detection-based prioritisation: Framework of multi-laboratory characteristics for asymptomatic COVID-19 carriers based on integrated Entropy–TOPSIS methods

“…This framework can assist decision-makers in medical organisations to determine the optimal classifier for COVID-19 diagnosis. Another work [ 32 ] presented a real-time death assessment monitoring of COVID-19 using TOPSIS MCDM to select most important risk factors and applied GMDH to estimate death value within all confirmed cases. A study [ 33 ] investigated some elected activities and evaluated their importance and suggested that many activities should not be performed during the COVID 19 pandemic period.…”

“… Aim of the study Method used Criteria used Case study [ 31 ] Evaluation and benchmarking methodology to select the best classifiers for COVID-19 diagnosis Entropy–TOPSIS Main criteria: time-complexity group reliability, reliability Sub-criteria: precision, f1-score, recall, average accuracy, error rate, TP, TN, FP, FN Public data sources from hospitals and physicians of chest X-ray and CT images for positive or suspected patients of COVID-19, MERS, SARS, and ARDS.

“…Although the case study of [ 31 ] is COVID-19, the authors employed Entropy and TOPSIS methods to evaluate the diverse diagnostic models of machine learning where the SVM classifier was nominated as the most suitable diagnosis model for COVID19. Furthermore, the main objective of the study [ 32 ] is to identify the important risk aspect and continuous monitoring of death due to COVID-19. Result indicates that “contamination due to contact with the infected person” is the main accountable factor behind the pandemic COVID-19.…”

“…On March 11, 2020, the WHO declared the COVID-19 as a pandemic. There is no proper treatment for the COVID-19 in Medical Science and the number of people affected is increasing every day (Majumder et al 2020). As of September 6, 2020, over 26 million people worldwide were infected with SARS-CoV-2 virus, and nearly 900 thousand people have died because of the COVID-19.…”

“…Individuals should prevent the spread of the virus by constantly washing their hands again, using personal protective equipment (masks) to protect their health. Thus, they should reduce risk factors (Majumder et al 2020).…”
