A culling switching parallel scheme for an SEIADR epidemic model

This paper develops a parallel structure for an SEIADR epidemic model which consists of the subpopulations susceptible (S), exposed (E), symptomatic infectious (I), asymptomatic infectious (A), dead lying bodies (D) and recovered by immunity (R). The epidemic model has eventually three controls: vaccination, treatment and impulsive culling on the infective lying bodies. The proposed supervised scheme consists of several alternative corpses culling controller parameterizations in a parallel disposal jointly with a switching scheme which chooses the active one to be in operation on each current inter-switching time interval. The supervisory scheme decides about switching from an impulsive culling action to another one when a predefined supervised loss function of a new candidate has improved along the last tested inter-switching time interval.
