Abstract

There was an outbreak of COVID-19 on the Diamond Princess cruise ship. Distinguishing close contacts is the important problem to be addressed. Close contacts mean people who stays with the patients of disease like COVID-19 over a period of time. The passenger position on board can be obtained by indoor positioning technology. The feature of close contacts is similar location with COVID-19 patients. Therefore, this paper proposed the idea of distinguishing close contacts on board based on DBSCAN algorithm.
