The CP‐ABM approach for modelling COVID‐19 infection dynamics and quantifying the effects of non‐pharmaceutical interventions

作者:

Highlights:

• Novel CP-ABM method fusing change point detection & agent based modelling approaches.

• Method accurately models COVID-19 infection dynamics covering two infection waves.

• CP-ABM identifies key non pharmaceutical interventions & captures their effects.

• Proposed infection centric modelling approach has significant computation efficiency.

• Its effectiveness is fully demonstrated on the entire Northern Ireland population.
