DISI - University of Trento New – generation individual based models for infectious diseases transmission
Mathematical models are powerful tools for simulating plausible epidemic spread scenarios and for evaluating the impact of control policies. They represent the scientific basis on which public health policy makers should take their decisions on the intervention strategies that should be performed at local, national and international scale. In this context, Individual-Based simulation Models (IB...
متن کاملInference for Individual-level Models of Infectious Diseases in Large Populations.
Individual Level Models (ILMs), a new class of models, are being applied to infectious epidemic data to aid in the understanding of the spatio-temporal dynamics of infectious diseases. These models are highly flexible and intuitive, and can be parameterised under a Bayesian framework via Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods. Unfortunately, this parameterisation can be difficult to implement ...
متن کاملOn the Identifiability of Transmission Dynamic Models for Infectious Diseases.
Understanding the transmission dynamics of infectious diseases is important for both biological research and public health applications. It has been widely demonstrated that statistical modeling provides a firm basis for inferring relevant epidemiological quantities from incidence and molecular data. However, the complexity of transmission dynamic models presents two challenges: (1) the likelih...
متن کاملLatent conditional individual-level models for infectious disease modeling.
Individual-level models (ILMs) have previously been used to model the spatiotemporal spread of infectious diseases. These models can incorporate individual-level covariate information, to account for population heterogeneity. However, incomplete or unreliable data are a common problem in infectious disease modeling, and models that are explicitly dependent on such information may not be robust ...
متن کاملThe network level reproduction number for infectious diseases with both vertical and horizontal transmission.
A wide range of infectious diseases are both vertically and horizontally transmitted. Such diseases are spatially transmitted via multiple species in heterogeneous environments, typically described by complex meta-population models. The reproduction number, R0, is a critical metric predicting whether the disease can invade the meta-population system. This paper presents the reproduction number ...
