Epidemic Mitigation with Genetic Algorithm

Covid

Genetic Algorithm for Epidemic Mitigation

https://arxiv.org/pdf/1707.05377.pdf

This algorithm uses genex and libgraph to create a genetic algorithm for limiting the spread of disease in a social network.

The algorithm produces a list of edges to remove from the network. These edges represent connections---essentially the algorithm tells you which edges will effectively mitigate the spread of infection.

To run, clone this directory and run iex -S mix. From iex type the following:
