Effective reproduction number: Convexity, invariance and cordons sanitaires
, 2021 We consider the problem of optimal allocation strategies for a (perfect) vaccine in an infinite-metapopulation model (including SIS, SIR, SEIR,. . .), when the loss function is given by the effective reproduction number Re, which is defined as the spectral radius of the effective next generation matrix (in finite dimension) or more generally of the ...

Fine-scale estimation of effective reproduction numbers for dengue surveillance
PLOS Computational Biology, 2022 The effective reproduction numberRtis an epidemiological quantity that provides an instantaneous measure of transmission potential of an infectious disease. While dengue is an increasingly important vector-borne disease, few have usedRtas a measure to inform public health operations and policy for dengue.

estimateR: an R package to estimate and monitor the effective reproductive number
BMC Bioinformatics, 2023 AbstractBackgroundAccurate estimation of the effective reproductive number ($$R_e$$Re) of epidemic outbreaks is of central relevance to public health policy and decision making. We present estimateR, an R package for the estimation of the reproductive number through time from delayed observations of infection events.
