Convolution model for COVID-19 rate predictions and health effort levels computation for Saudi Arabia, France, and Canada

Abstract Many published infection prediction models, such as the extended SEIR (E-SEIR) model, are used as a study and report tool to aid health authorities to manage the epidemic plans successfully. These models face many challenges, mainly the reliability of the infection rate predictions related...
