- Abstract
Aiming to help eradicate the Ebola outbreak in West Africa, the article optimizes the classical SIR model which works on predicting the spread of infectious diseases, providing insight into not only forecasting how the disease continues to develop but also what measurement should be taken. The models can be applied to forecast the spread of other severe infectious diseases that can cause quantities of death in a short time.
