This article is a Preprint
Preprints are preliminary research reports that have not been certified by peer review. They should not be relied on to guide clinical practice or health-related behavior and should not be reported in news media as established information.
Preprints posted online allow authors to receive rapid feedback and the entire scientific community can appraise the work for themselves and respond appropriately. Those comments are posted alongside the preprints for anyone to read them and serve as a post publication assessment.

ABSTRACT
With the outbreak of COVID-19, how to mitigate and suppress its spread is a big issue to the government. Department of public health need powerful models to model and predict the trend and scale of such pandemic. And models that could evaluate the effect of the public policy are also essential to the fight with the COVID-19. A main limitation of existing models is that they can only evaluate the policy by calculating $R_0$ after infection happens instead of giving observable index. To tackle this, based on the transmission character of the COVID-19, we preposed a novel framework Spatial-Temporal-Susceptible-Infected-Removed (STSIR) model. In particular, we merged both intra-city and inter-city mobility index with the traditional SIR dynamics and make it a dynamic system. And we proved that the STSIR system is a closed system which makes the system self-consistent. And finally we proposed a Multi-Stage Simulated Annealing (MSSA) algorithm to find optimal parameter of the system. In our experiments, based on Baidu Mobility dataset, and China pandemic dataset provided by Dingxiangyuan, our model can effectively predict the total scale of the pandemic and also gives clear policy analysis with observable index.
