Anonymity Preserving Self Reporting System
The idea is to provide citizens and residents of Luxembourg with a way to publicly and anonymously report the town they live in, upon testing positive for the corona virus. The resulting figure will be displayed on a map, either for government or public consumption. Allowing decision makers and/or individuals to better inform their actions.
CELL - Covid-19 pandEmic simuLator review for Luxembourg
Epidemic simulators are one of the essential tools for understanding and combating epidemic crises. They could assist researchers in better understanding the functioning of the dissemination process, but also empower decision-makers to try and assess different policies. In particular, they should be able to help with the projection of patient numbers, epicenters identification, intervention plan analysis, and resource management measures. With Covid-19, it is therefore required to assess if the existing simulation tools and the newly built/upcoming ones rely on realistic-enough propagatio...
COVID19 Literature Bio-Curation, Text-mining and Semantic Web Technologies
The world wide scientific response to COVID-19 pandemic is reflected in the ever-growing scientific literature. Enriching our current knowledge base (https://biokb.lcsb.uni.lu) with these publications requires joint efforts at each stage of the chain of process involved in the text-mining pipeline. This pipeline comprises several challenging tasks such as part-of-speech tagging, entity recognition and normalisation, or event extraction, which are essential to discover relevant knowledge in the form of entities, relations and events. Such knowledge is then made available to the public via se...
CoLiBri - COVID19 Literature Browser for Scientific Investigations
Papyrus is a fully operational web-based corpus visualization software developed at LIST, providing interactive visual maps of topics extracted automatically from thousands of articles without prior knowledge of their contents. It can handle emerging situations where new vocabulary arises for the first time. Papyrus was previously validated with PubMed publications. It also uses the MESH ontology to extract medically relevant concepts, which are leveraged in several visualizations and in semantic search queries. Unlike search engines or faceted search, the provided interactive visualization...
DAPASOL - LIST Data Analytics Platform as a Service for Covid 19 crisis Solutions
The project wants to maximise the use of relevant data to manage the COVID 19 crisis by building an infrastructure that supports collaboration and alleviates most technical obstacles linked to data management, including: - data processing (acquisition, storage, curation, harvesting, descriptive analysis, e.g. trend, noise vs information, outliers, etc., or visualisation); - integration of data with other available sources, including from the public domain, data lakes or from partners and external contributors; - providing access to LIST Data analytics Platform and services in an incremen...
DIS-COVID: A privacy-friendly, user-centric framework for estimating crowd mobility patterns and ...
Modelling the spread of an epidemic over a given territory requires detailed understanding of how the population moves, interacts and behaves. This usually relies on location information (e.g. GPS from smartphones) or cellular datasets (i.e. Call Detail Records aggregating communications over a cellular network). Analysis of such data provides the foundation to develop strategies to prevent further spreading. However, access to this data is subject to controversy, first of all because it is not respectful of the individuals' privacy. Furthermore, analysing this data does not provide a full ...
Data science aided adaptive strategy for anti-body testing to manage post-outbreak and future outbreaks
Why? Anti-body tests are paramount to understand the extent of herd immunity developed in the community. Thus, these tests can help plan public outreach by local authorities during and after an outbreak. Further, it can aid in developing containment strategies to prevent a subsequent wave of the outbreak. In a scenario where the current pandemic becomes seasonal, anti-body tests would help to strategize responses seasonally, including vaccination campaigns. On a personal level, it can help an individual take appropriate preventive and precautionary measures. What? A data-driven applica...
Detection Covid19 patients rapidly using cough and voice analyses
Emergency service hospital center receives a huge number of calls in epidemic period, among these calls there are critical cases that need rapid intervention, it may be delayed to answer these cases. Therefore, we suggest a solution by giving an indication of the health status of the person calling directly when hearing his voice and cough. This indicator depends on finding a degree of correspondence between the caller's voice, cough signatures and that of certain patients with the COVID-19 virus. This solution can also be used effectively by health professionals for remote consultations in...
