Background:
The experiences of SARS-CoV-2 are different in nature among the different states of the world. Studies on survival analysis of such pandemic mainly based on differential equation analysis, but the main limitation of such models is non-universal applicability. Consideration of improper functional relation in case of identification, survival and testing effort variables of the disease may be the cause of such non-universal applicability.
Methods:
Present study using optimization techniques try to find the general functional form for the variables like identification of the carrier's and testing effort. The study uses both the discrete and continuous time procedure of optimization technique. The main objective of the study is to institute relation between the identified carrier's and effort taken for identification.
Results:
The study considers test as the pseudo variable for effort of identification. The study found that the relationship between test and identified is not a linear one, rather it is nonlinear quadratic type. The study does not go for using data driven methods to verify the results.
