A general class of spreading processes with non-Markovian dynamics

open access: yes, 2015
In this paper we propose a general class of models for spreading processes we call the $SI^*V^*$ model. Unlike many works that consider a fixed number of compartmental states, we allow an arbitrary number of states on arbitrary graphs with heterogeneous ...
