We discuss an approach of robust fitting on nonlinear regression models, both in a frequentist and a Bayesian approach, which can be employed to model and predict the contagion dynamics of COVID-19 in Italy. The focus is on the analysis of epidemic data using robust dose-response curves, but the functionality is applicable to arbitrary nonlinear regression models.

Abstract
We discuss an approach of robust fitting on nonlinear regression models, both in a frequentist and a Bayesian approach, which can be employed to model and predict the contagion dynamics of COVID-19 in Italy. The focus is on the analysis of epidemic data using robust dose-response curves, but the functionality is applicable to arbitrary nonlinear regression models.File in questo prodotto:
