HIV with contact-tracing: a case study in Approximate Bayesian Computation

, 2010
Missing data is a recurrent issue in epidemiology where the infection process may be partially observed. Approximate Bayesian Computation, an alternative to data imputation methods such as Markov Chain Monte Carlo integration, is proposed for making ...

Modelling and simulating Chikungunya spread with an unstructured triangular cellular automata

Infectious Disease Modelling, 2020
In this work we propose a mathematical model to simulate Chikungunya spread; the spread model is implemented in a C++ cellular automata code defined on unstructured triangular grids and space visualizations are performed with Python. In order to simulate

On the Dynamics of Dengue Virus type 2 with Residence Times and Vertical Transmission

, 2016
A two-patch mathematical model of Dengue virus type 2 (DENV-2) that accounts for vectors' vertical transmission and between patches human dispersal is introduced. Dispersal is modeled via a Lagrangian approach.

Individual versus cluster recoveries within a spatially structured population

, 2006
Stochastic modeling of disease dynamics has had a long tradition. Among the first epidemic models including a spatial structure in the form of local interactions is the contact process. In this article we investigate two extensions of the contact process

Understanding biofilm--phage interactions in cystic fibrosis patients using mathematical frameworks

Computational and Mathematical Biophysics
When planktonic bacteria adhere together to a surface, they begin to form biofilms, communities of bacteria. Biofilm formation in a host can be extremely problematic if left untreated, especially since antibiotics can be ineffective in treating the ...

Ebola Model and Optimal Control with Vaccination Constraints

, 2017
The Ebola virus disease is a severe viral haemorrhagic fever syndrome caused by Ebola virus. This disease is transmitted by direct contact with the body fluids of an infected person and objects contaminated with virus or infected animals, with a death ...
