Development of a chlamydia infection model for evaluating costs and outcomes of health interventions
Introduction: Chlamydia is a very common bacterial sexual transmitted infection (STI) among young adults. High numbers of asymptomatic cases hamper a timely treatment start, whereas the treatment itself is efficient and cheap.

Synthetic Symbiosis under Environmental Disturbances
By virtue of complex ecologies, the behavior of mutualisms is challenging to study and nearly impossible to predict. However, laboratory engineered mutualistic systems facilitate a better understanding of their bare essentials.

The Ontology of Theoretical Modelling: Models as Make-Believe [PDF]
The descriptions and theoretical laws scientists write down when they model a system are often false of any real system. And yet we commonly talk as if there were objects that satisfy the scientists’ assumptions and as if we may learn about their ...

Game theory is a tool to model and discover social mechanisms. The aim of this chapter is to show how the tool can be used by engaging the reader's interest in the game-theoretic modelling of social dilemmas. Social dilemmas are situations in which several agents face a decision conflict because of their interdependence.

Control Theoretic Models of Pointing [PDF]
This article presents an empirical comparison of four models from manual control theory on their ability to model targeting behaviour by human users using a mouse: McRuer’s Crossover, Costello’s Surge, second-order lag (2OL), and the Bang-bang model.

On Game-Theoretic Models of Networks [PDF]
In this paper, we study the complexity of deciding which player has a winning strategy in certain types of McNaughton games. These graph games can be used as models for computational problems and processes of infinite duration. We consider the cases (1) where the first player wins when vertices in a specified set are visited infinitely often and ...

Internal solitons in laboratory experiments: Comparison with theoretical models
Nonlinear internal solitary waves observed in laboratory experiments are discussed from the standpoint of their relation to different soliton theories, from the classical integrable models such as the Korteweg-de Vries, Gardner, Benjamin-Ono, and Joseph ...

Explicit kinetic heterogeneity: mathematical models for interpretation of deuterium labeling of heterogeneous cell populations. [PDF]
Estimation of division and death rates of lymphocytes in different conditions is vital for quantitative understanding of the immune system. Deuterium, in the form of deuterated glucose or heavy water, can be used to measure rates of proliferation and ...

THEORETICAL ASPECTS OF QUINTOM MODELS [PDF]
Quintom models, with its Equation of State being able to cross the cosmological constant boundary w = -1, turns out to be attractive for phenomenological study. It can not only be applicable for dark energy model for current universe, but also lead to a bounce scenario in the early universe.
