Network Epidemic Control via Model Predictive Control: Extended Version
Mahtab Talaei, Alex Olshevsky, Laura F. White +1
Balancing the societal costs of non-pharmaceutical interventions with epidemic suppression requires adaptive feedback control. Rather than relying on state-dependent operational ca…
Network-Based Epidemic Control Through Optimal Travel and Quarantine Management
Mahtab Talaei, Apostolos I. Rikos, Alex Olshevsky +2
Motivated by the swift global transmission of infectious diseases, we present a comprehensive framework for network-based epidemic control. Our aim is to curb epidemics using two d…
Enhancing Federated Learning with Adaptive Differential Privacy and Priority-Based Aggregation
Mahtab Talaei, Iman Izadi
Federated learning (FL), a novel branch of distributed machine learning (ML), develops global models through a private procedure without direct access to local datasets. However, i…
