Abstract

AbstractCOVID-19 is a global health crisis that has caused ripples in every aspect of human life. Amid widespread vaccinations testing, manufacture and distribution efforts, nations still rely on human mobility restrictions to mitigate infection and death tolls. New waves of infection in many nations, indecisiveness on the efficacy of existing vaccinations, and emerging strains of the virus call for intelligent mobility policies that utilize contact pattern and epidemiological data to check contagion. Our earlier work leveraged network science principles to design social distancing optimization approaches that show promise in slowing infection spread however, they prove to be computationally prohibitive and require complete knowledge of the social network. In this work, we present scalable and distributed versions of the optimization approaches based on Markov Chain Monte Carlo Gibbs sampling and grid-based spatial parallelization that tackle both the challenges faced by the optimization strategies. We perform extensive simulation experiments to show the ability of the proposed strategies to meet necessary network science measures and yield performance comparable to the optimal counterpart, while exhibiting significant speed-up. We study the scalability of the proposed strategies as well as their performance in realistic scenarios when a fraction of the population temporarily flouts the location recommendations.
