• Abstract summary: We explore the COVID-19 pandemic influence trends in the subcontinent of India in the context of how far the infection rate spiked in the year 2020. The paper contributes to the empirical study of understanding the impact caused by the novel virus to the country by doing extensive explanatory data analysis of the data collected from the official government portal.

• Abstract: Visualizing data plays a pivotal role in portraying important scientific information. Hence, visualization techniques aid in displaying relevant graphical interpretations from the varied structures of data, which is found otherwise. In this paper, we explore the COVID-19 pandemic influence trends in the subcontinent of India in the context of how far the infection rate spiked in the year 2020 and how the public health division of the country India has helped to curb the spread of the novel virus by installing vaccination centers across the diaspora of the country. The paper contributes to the empirical study of understanding the impact caused by the novel virus to the country by doing extensive explanatory data analysis of the data collected from the official government portal. Our work contributes to the understanding that data visualization is prime in understanding public health problems and beyond and taking necessary measures to curb the existing pandemic.

This paper proposes a STOP-temporal knowledge mining framework, named STOP to model the impact of human mobility and contextual information over large geographic area in different temporal scales. The framework has two modules: (i) S-temporal data and computing infrastructure using fog/edge based architecture; and (ii) S-temporal data analytics module to efficiently extract knowledge from heterogeneous data sources.

  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.
