Abstract
Developing effective strategies to contain the spread of infectious diseases, particularly in the case of rapidly evolving outbreaks like COVID-19, remains a pressing challenge. The Susceptible-Infected-Recovery (SIR) model, a fundamental tool in epidemiology, offers insights into disease dynamics. The SIR system exhibits complex nonlinear relationships between the input variables (eg, population, infection rate, recovery rate) and the output variables (eg, the number of infected individuals over time). We employ Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) to model the SIR system due to their ability to capture sequential dependencies and handle time-series data effectively. RNNs, with their ability to model nonlinear functions, can capture these intricate relationships, enabling accurate predictions and understanding of the dynamics of the system.
