Cov-INS | Intelligent Navigation System to Avoid Infected Covid-19 Areas with Reinforcement Learning and Internet of Things

Abstract: In this paper, a Machine Learning-enabled intelligent navigation system is presented. It will recommend routes in a road network by minimizing source to destination distance by choosing right shortest path between source to destination , it also take care and avoids categorically marked COVID-19 hotspots. The Q-Learning based system takes the source and destination as inputs from the users and recommends a safe and shorter path for traveling. It reduces the risk of getting exposed to the contaminated zones and contracting the virus by bypassing the red covid19 hotspot zones.
