ANFAIA/MalariaSentinel

Spatial Decision Support System for malaria elimination. Agent-based mosquito model, driven by satellite environmental data, with a neural surrogate for fast monthly risk maps. Ghana as first target region. # MalariaSentinel ## *Artificial Intelligence System for Predictive Malaria Surveillance* --- ## 1. The Problem or Challenge to Address Malaria remains one of the leading causes of mortality in tropical regions, exacerbated by climate change, which alters the breeding patterns of the *Anopheles* mosquito. The main challenge lies in the **reactive** nature of current health systems: interventions (spraying, supply distribution) are typically launched only after clinical cases are detected, when the outbreak is already in its expansion phase. A critical gap exists between the availability of satellite environmental data (climate, humidity, vegetation) and its practical application in local health decision-making. The lack of accessible predictive tools prevents authorities from prioritizing limited resources in the micro-zones that will actually become infection hotspots in the weeks ahead. --- ## Monorepo Structure ``` MalariaSentinel/ pyproject.toml Workspace root README.md This file AGENTS.md Agent guide: where to put new work .gitignore # ─── Python packages (UV workspace members) ──────────────────── mal-commonlib/ Shared config, paths, raster helpers mal-core/ Stable pipeline logic (ABM engine, training, prediction) mal-execution/ CLI entrypoints, batch jobs, HPC/cloud automation mal-data-explorer/ Dataset visualization, mapping, bias analysis scripts # ─── Research content ───────────────────────────────────────── data/ All datasets (ghana_idit, colombia, react, guf, etc.) (raw .txt/.zip gitignored — see scripts/restore_data.py) papers/ Research PDFs CoreHypothesis/ Environmental drivers of malaria MalariaSpatialAnalysis/ Spatial & spatio-temporal methods terrain/ SRTM DEM tiles and download scripts (raw .tif gitignored — PNGs tracked) runs/ Experiment outpu …
