Disentangling reporting and disease transmission [PDF]
Theoretical Ecology, 2017 Abstract Second order statistics such as the variance and autocorrelation can be useful indicators of the stability of randomly perturbed systems, in some cases providing early warning of an impending, dramatic change in the system’s dynamics. One specific application area of interest is the surveillance of infectious diseases.
