Tool for the evaluation of infection probability from Covid-19 indoor

The goal of this project was to create a software tool for the evaluation of the infection probability for Covid-19 in closed settings. This tool is meant to be used by people who are not familiar with mathematical modelling, then the aim was to create a user-friendly software.

The code is totally written in Python, and for the graphical part I used the PyQT5 library. In this repository you will find the code folder with the following files:

1. interface.py the code for the implementation of the graphical user interface;
2. programme.py the code to make the GUI work correctly for the evaluation;
3. dialog.py for the dialog window embedded in the main window.

You will find also a folder with the images used in the GUI and the dialog window (the resource_rc.py code is mandatory to import correctly images).

Using the code

You just need to import the repository in your local computer:

git clone https://github.com/benedettasantoro22/covid-19-evaluation-tool.git

go to the folder:

cd covid-19-evaluation-tool.git

and run the code:

python .\programme.py

You'll probably need to install some additional libraries to run the code, like PyQT5; if so, type:

conda install library_name

If you prefer a standalone file, you can compile the "programme.spec" ¹ file:

pyinstaller programme.spec

For the instructions on how to use the GUI see the INSTRUCTIONS.md file.

If you have any questions or suggestions, please contact me by email.
