Detecting Disease Outbreaks in Mass Gatherings Using Internet Data
BACKGROUND Mass gatherings, such as music festivals and religious events, pose a health care challenge because of the risk of transmission of communicable diseases. This is exacerbated by the fact that participants disperse soon after the gathering, potentially spreading disease within their communities. The dispersion of participants also poses a challenge for traditional surveillance methods....
متن کاملLocal and Global Impact of Disease Outbreaks
Food and mouth disease (FMD) and Classical Swine Fever (CSF) are highly contagious diseases for pigs, and they are classified on the List A of the Organisation International des Epizooties (OIE) in Paris, France. Being a List A disease implies that every suspected case has to be investigated and once it is confirmed, the outbreak has to be notified. Both FMD and CSF are widespread in many parts...
متن کاملDetecting and Tracking Disease Outbreaks by Mining Social Media Data
The emergence and ubiquity of online social networks have enriched web data with evolving interactions and communities both at mega-scale and in real-time. This data offers an unprecedented opportunity for studying the interaction between society and disease outbreaks. The challenge we describe in this data paper is how to extract and leverage epidemic outbreak insights from massive amounts of ...
متن کاملA Framework for Detecting and Classifying Outbreaks of Gastrointestinal Disease
Introduction Outbreaks of waterborne gastrointestinal disease occur routinely in North America, resulting in considerable morbidity, mortality, and cost (Hrudey, Payment et al. 2003). Outbreak detection methods generally attempt to identify anomalies in time, but do not identify the type or source of an outbreak. We seek to develop a framework for both detection and classification of outbreaks ...
متن کاملDeconstructing spatiotemporal chaos using local symbolic dynamics.
We find that the global symbolic dynamics of a diffusively coupled map lattice is well approximated by a very small local model for weak to moderate coupling strengths. A local symbolic model is a truncation of the full symbolic model to one that considers only a single element and a few neighbors. Using interval analysis, we give rigorous results for a range of coupling strengths and different...
