An optimal control approach to malaria prevention via insecticide-treated nets [PDF]
, 2013 Malaria is a life threatening disease, entirely preventable and treatable, provided the currently recommended interventions are properly implemented. These interventions include vector control through the use of insecticide-treated nets (ITNs).

A surrogate Bayesian framework for a SARS-CoV-2 data driven stochastic model
Computational and Mathematical Biophysics, 2022 Dynamic compartmentalized data (DCD) and compartmentalized differential equations (CDEs) are key instruments for modeling transmission of pathogens such as the SARS-CoV-2 virus.

STABILITY ANALYSIS OF A DELAYED FRACTIONAL ORDER SIRS EPIDEMIC MODEL WITH NONLINEAR INCIDENCE RATE
International Journal of Apllied Mathematics, 2019 In this paper, we study the stability of a fractional order SIRS epidemic model with nonlinear incidence rate and time delay, where the fractional derivative is defined in the Caputo sense.

How to Obtain Long Term Projections for Smoking Behaviour: A Case Study in the Dutch Population
Computational and Mathematical Methods in Medicine, Volume 10, Issue 2, Page 155-164, 2009., 2009 A state‐transition model is presented to project the prevalence rates of never, current and former smokers within the Dutch population. Changes are determined by the transition rates among these three classes: start rates, quit rates and relapse rates. Both the initial prevalence rates and transition rates are calculated from cross‐sectional data using

Optimal Control for a Tuberculosis Model with Exogenous Reinfection under the Influence of Stigma
Computational and Mathematical Biophysics, 2022 Often described as the world’s most deadly infectious disease, Tuberculosis remains a serious health threat in many parts of the world, especially in the developing countries.

A STOCHASTIC MODEL FOR HIV EPIDEMIC WITH TREATMENT AND INFLOW OF INFECTIVES
International Journal of Apllied Mathematics, 2018 We present a stochastic model of the population dynamics of HIV/AIDS with treatment and inflow of infectives. Starting with a deterministic compartmental model, each of the four ordinary differential equations are stochastically perturbed.

The Dynamics of an HIV/AIDS Model with Screened Disease Carriers
Computational and Mathematical Methods in Medicine, Volume 10, Issue 4, Page 287-305, 2009., 2009 The presence of carriers usually complicates the dynamics and prevention of a disease. They are not recognized as disease cases themselves unless they are screened and they usually spread the infection without them being aware. We argue that this has been one of the major causes of the spread of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).

Lyapunov Functions for Tuberculosis Models with Fast and Slow Progression [PDF]
, 2006 The spread of tuberculosis is studied through two models which include fast and slow progression to the infected class. For each model, Lyapunov functions are used to show that when the basic reproduction number is less than or equal to one, the disease ...

Computational and Mathematical Biophysics, 2022 In this study, we develop a mathematical model incorporating age-specific transmission dynamics of COVID-19 to evaluate the role of vaccination and treatment strategies in reducing the size of COVID-19 burden.
