They then used computer data to model how this behavior change could affect the spread of respiratory viruses, using different scenarios based on virus characteristics and population immunity.

Up to 231,999 students and 1,471 teachers are without the technology and devices at home to support distance learning. About 42% of the students who lack access are Black, Latinx, or Native American.

This indicates that our model is able to explore more freely during training, learning better policy through RL. Our two approaches both achieve non-trivial improvements across all benchmarks.
