Abstract

The coronavirus pandemic is an unprecedented global crisis that poses not only a serious threat to physical health but also the challenge of mental illness. This case study highlights the multifaceted impacts of the mental illness epidemic by exploring the interplay of social, emotional, and economic factors. Through a combination of survey studies, qualitative interviews, and expert observations, this research highlights the range of mental health issues experienced by individuals from different groups of people. In this chapter, the authors presented a machine learning model that can investigate trust-related issues based on real-life data. The authors reduce computational complexity by trying to build models with fewer features. To develop the model, the authors followed four steps: collecting data through face-to-face interviews, asking for details, using different classification methods, and comparing and sharing the performance of different algorithms.

Pollard CA, Morran MP, Nestor-Kalinoski AL. The COVID-19 pandemic:a global health crisis. Physiol Genomics 52: 549–557, 2020. First published September 29, 2020; doi:10.1152/physiolgenomics.00089.2020. The novel coro-navirus SARS-CoV-2 was identified as the causative agent for a series of atypical respiratory diseases in the Hubei Province of Wuhan, China in December of 2019. The disease SARS-CoV-2, termed COVID-19, was officially declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization on March 11, 2020. SARS-CoV-2 contains a single stranded, positive-sense RNA genome surrounded by an extrac-ellular membrane containing a series of spike glycoproteins resembling a crown.
