IoT-Based Technological Framework for Inhibiting the Spread of COVID-19: A Pandemic Using Machine Learning and Fuzzy-Based Processes

Abstract

The COVID-19 infestation has resulted in the loss of the lives of millions of people and the destruction of commercial, communal, and healthcare systems around the world. To control these kinds of pandemics, complete knowledge of the traits and responses to the disease is required, and this knowledge can be gathered using various computational methods. These computational techniques can be very helpful in information building required for taking appropriate action timely and applying preventive mechanisms. Although there are numerous computational approaches that the researchers are applying over the past few months, there is a need to re-evaluate and compare these available techniques for finding out the best technique that can help reduce the extent of COVID-19. Hence, in this paper, we carried out a literature review to emphasize the assistance of various computational approaches around COVID-19. The paper presents a categorization of approaches such as multicriteria decision-making, fuzzy AHP, machine learning, neural network, and data science that have been used to deal with the epidemic. Furthermore, this study discusses various challenges experienced when accessing the COVID-19 data. The conclusions of the paper propose the best computational approach among all to be appraised for future investigations and implementations.
