In literature, various mathematical models have been developed to have a better insight into the transmission dynamics and control the spread of infectious diseases. Aiming to explore more about various aspects of infectious diseases, in this work, we propose conceptual mathematical model through a SEIQR (Susceptible-Exposed-Infected-Quarantined-Recovered) mathematical model and its control measurement. We establish the positivity and boundedness of the solutions. We also compute the basic reproduction number and investigate the stability of equilibria for its epidemiological relevance. To validate the model and estimate the parameters to predict the disease spread, we consider the special case for COVID-19 to study the real cases of infected cases from [2] for Russia and India. For better insight, in addition to mathematical model, a history based LSTM model is trained to learn temporal patterns in COVID-19 time series and predict future trends. In the end, the future predictions from mathematical model and the LSTM based model are compared to generate reliable results.
