摘要

当今一个重要的全球健康问题是严重传染病的发病率。当前的COVID-19大流行在全球蔓延，引发了一场非同寻常的人道主义危机。新病毒的传播给现有的医疗机构带来了巨大的压力，并产生了一些紧迫的问题。重要的是要预测疾病的未来运动和模式，以减少感染病例和最大限度地恢复病例。本研究的目的是利用移动跟踪作为识别传染病传播热点的手段。该研究的重点是在两周内使用谷歌地图数据收集和分析来自UNITEN学生的移动数据。介绍了数据采集过程、数据预处理步骤以及HDBSCAN算法在热点聚类中的应用。结果证明了HDBSCAN在基于移动数据识别热点方面的有效性。这些发现突出了疾病监测中流动性跟踪的潜力，并为公共卫生干预和预防措施提供了见解。

Utilizing Mobility Tracking to Identify Hotspots for Contagious Disease Spread

A significant global health problem nowadays is the incidence of serious infectious illnesses. An extraordinary humanitarian crisis has been brought on by the current COVID-19 pandemic, which has spread around the world. The spread of new viruses has put established healthcare institutions under tremendous strain and created a number of pressing problems. It is important to predict the future movement and pattern of the illness in order to decrease infectious instances and maximize recovered cases. This research paper aims to utilize mobility tracking as a means to identify hotspots for contagious disease spread. The study focuses on collecting and analyzing mobility data from UNITEN students using Google Map data over a period of two weeks. The paper describes the data collection process, data pre-processing steps, and the application of the HDBSCAN algorithm for hotspot clustering. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of HDBSCAN in identifying hotspots based on the mobility data. The findings highlight the potential of mobility tracking for disease surveillance and provide insights for public health interventions and preventive measures.
