An investigation of three mathematical models on the COVID-19 pandemic: the case of Turkey

Can Engin

Mathematical modelling plays a major role in assessing, controlling, and forecasting potential outbreaks. This article consists of implementing mathematical forecasting models by Liang [14], Ma [16], and the curve fitting method with the least squares as a standard approach in regression analysis and compares those calculate results obtained from the Covid-19 outbreak data, which is announced by the Turkish Ministry of Health, between March 10, 2020, and May 15, 2020, in Turkey. For this purpose, we presented an overview of three mathematical models and finally, demonstrated their applications using the Ministry of Health of Turkey’s publicly reported data.
