Distributed Reproduction Numbers of Networked Epidemics
2023 American Control Conference (ACC), 2023 Reproduction numbers are widely used for the estimation and prediction of epidemic spreading processes over networks. However, reproduction numbers do not enable estimation and prediction in individual communities within networks, and they can be difficult to compute due to the aggregation of infection data that is required to do so. Therefore, in this

Royal Society Open Science, 2020 The basic reproduction number [Formula: see text] of the coronavirus disease 2019 has been estimated to range between 2 and 4. Here, we used an SEIR model that properly accounts for the distribution of the latent period and, based on empirical estimates ...

The basic reproduction number of COVID-19 across Africa.
PLoS ONE, 2022 The pandemic of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) took the world by surprise. Following the first outbreak of COVID-19 in December 2019, several models have been developed to study and understand its transmission dynamics ...

EpiMix: A novel method to estimate effective reproduction number
Infectious Disease Modelling, 2023 Transmission potential of a pathogen, often quantified by the time-varying reproduction number Rt, provides the current pace of infection for a disease and indicates whether an emerging epidemic is under control. In this study, we proposed a novel method,

The Basic Reproduction Number as a Loop Gain Matrix [PDF]
IEEE Control Systems Letters, 2022 The COVID-19 pandemic and the disordered reactions of most governments made the importance of mathematical modelling and model-based predictions evident, even outside the scientific community. The basic reproduction number [Formula: see text] quickly entered the common jargon, as a concise but effective tool to communicate the spreading power of a ...

Transmission dynamics of the COVID-19 epidemic in England
International Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2021 Background: The ongoing coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has caused a tremendous health burden and impact on the world economy. The UK Government implemented the biggest lockdown of society during peacetime in British history at the end of ...

On the basic reproduction number in semi-Markov switching networks
Journal of Biological Dynamics, 2021 Basic reproduction number $ \mathcal {R}_0 $ in network epidemic dynamics is studied in the case of stochastic regime-switching networks. For generality, the dependence between successive networks is considered to follow a continuous time semi-Markov ...
