K-Core Tracing Project for COVID-19
K-CORE TRACING APP
A DIGITAL CONTACT TRACER FOR COVID-19
Tracer Algorithm publicly available under GNU General Public License v3.0 free of charge at GitHub.com/MakseLab/COVID19
A Digital Contact Tracer Platform
We are fighting the coronavirus pandemic using machine learning and artificial intelligence. Our algorithms are open source under GNU General Public License v3.0 and free to use and available at Github.com/MakseLab/COVID19
The algorithm performs digital contact tracing to halt the spreading of the pandemic at the city, state, and nation-wide level. The algorithm identifies red zones with high probability of infection to help policy makers improve social distancing protocols and directed quarantines.

We collect data from the different sources. We then run our algorithms to construct contact networks of individuals to determine the super-spreaders of the epidemic. Our approach is transparent and based on network theoretical methods published in the scientific literature.
