Epidemic model with isolation in multilayer networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The Susceptible-Infected-Recovered (SIR) model has successfully mimicked the propagation of such airborne diseases as influenza A (H1N1). Although the SIR model has recently been studied in a multilayer networks configuration, in almost all the research ...

Epidemic Models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Communicable diseases such as measles, influenza, and tuberculosis are a fact of life. We will be concerned with both epidemics, which are sudden outbreaks of a disease, and endemic situations, in which a disease is always present. The AIDS epidemic, the recent SARS epidemic, recurring influenza pandemics, and outbursts of diseases such as the Ebola ...

A Diffusion Approximation for an Epidemic Model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Influenza is one of the most common and severe diseases worldwide. Devastating epidemics actuated by a new subtype of the influenza A virus occur again and again with the most important example given by the Spanish Flu in 1918/19 with more than 27 ...

Optimal Control and Cost-Effectiveness Analysis in An Epidemic Model with Viral Mutation and Vaccine Intervention

open access: yesCauchy: Jurnal Matematika Murni dan Aplikasi, 2022
This paper introduces an optimal control problem in a two-strain SIR epidemic model with viral mutation and vaccine administration. The purpose of this study was to investigate the efficacy and cost-effectiveness of two disease prevention strategies ...

Contagions in Random Networks with Overlapping Communities

open access: yes, 2014
We consider a threshold epidemic model on a clustered random graph with overlapping communities. In other words, our epidemic model is such that an individual becomes infected as soon as the proportion of her infected neighbors exceeds the threshold q of

Networks and epidemic models [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of The Royal Society Interface, 2005
Networks and the epidemiology of directly transmitted infectious diseases are fundamentally linked. The foundations of epidemiology and early epidemiological models were based on population wide random-mixing, but in practice each individual has a finite set of contacts to whom they can pass infection; the ensemble of all such contacts forms a ‘mixing ...

Modelling the spread of Covid19 in Italy using a revised version of the SIR model

open access: yes, 2020
In this paper, we present a model to predict the spread of the Covid-19 epidemic and apply it to the specific case of Italy. We started from a simple Susceptible, Infected, Recovered (SIR) model and we added the condition that, after a certain time, the ...

A stochastic differential equation SIS epidemic model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In this paper we extend the classical susceptible-infected-susceptible epidemic model from a deterministic framework to a stochastic one and formulate it as a stochastic differential equation (SDE) for the number of infectious individuals $I(t)$. We then

Time series analysis of leptospirosis incidence for forecasting in the Baltic countries using the ARIMA model

open access: yesРадіоелектронні і комп'ютерні системи
Leptospirosis, a zoonotic disease with significant public health implications, presents considerable forecasting challenges due to its seasonal patterns and environmental sensitivity, especially in under-researched regions like the Baltic countries. This

A mathematical study to control Guinea worm disease: a case study on Chad

open access: yesJournal of Biological Dynamics, 2018
Global eradication of Guinea worm disease (GWD) is in the final stage but a mysterious epidemic of the parasite in dog population makes the elimination programme challenging.
