A logistic formula in biology is applied to analyze deaths by COVID-19 for both of the first and the second waves in Japan. We then discuss ends of both waves and their mortality ratios. The meaning of population N in an epidemic is discussed.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
