- Abstract: The relationship between pandemic and human mobility has received
considerable attention from scholars, as it can provide an indication of how
mobility patterns change in response to a public health crisis or whether
reduced mobility contributes to preventing the spread of an infectious disease.
While several studies attempted to unveil such relationship, no studies have
focused on changes in human mobility at a finer scale utilizing comprehensive,
high-resolution data. To address the complex association between pandemic's
spread and human mobility, this paper presents two categories of mobility
datasets - trip mode and trip purpose - that concern nearly 10 million
citizens' movements during COVID-19 in the capital city of South Korea, Seoul,
where no lockdowns has been imposed. We curate hourly data of subway ridership,
traffic volume and population present count at selected points of interests.
The results to be derived from the presented datasets can be used as an
important reference for public health decision making in the post COVID-19 era.

C-Watcher aims at screening every neighborhood in a target city and predicting infection risks, prior to the spread of COVID-19 from epicenters to the city.
C-Watcher collects large-scale long-term human mobility data from Baidu Maps, then characterizes every residential neighborhood in the city using a set of features based on urban mobility patterns.
We carried out extensive experiments on C-Watcher using the real-data records in the early stage of COVID-19 outbreaks.

The outbreak of the novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has been continuously affecting human lives and communities around the world.
We used multiple data sources, i.e., PubMed and ArXiv, and built several machine learning models to characterize the landscape of current COVID-19 research.
Our findings confirm the types of research available in PubMed and ArXiv differ significantly, with the former exhibiting greater diversity in terms of COVID-19 related issues.
