Journal of Economic Surveys, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper reviews how large‐scale mobility data can enhance economic analyses, highlighting its contributions to understanding travel behavior, labor markets, social interactions, and health outcomes. We discuss its advantages over traditional mobility data sources, which include real‐time location information and fine spatial resolution ...

Modeling Airborne Influenza in Three Dimensions
Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 3, March 2026.A novel 3D fluid dynamics model demonstrates how influenza outbreaks spread spatially via “epidemic flow.” Simulations reveal that direct contact is the dominant transmission route over aerosol spread, offering a new tool to inform targeted public health interventions and spatially‐aware risk assessment.

Disease control as an optimization problem.
PLoS ONE, 2021 In the context of epidemiology, policies for disease control are often devised through a mixture of intuition and brute-force, whereby the set of logically conceivable policies is narrowed down to a small family described by a few parameters, following ...

A data-driven semi-parametric model of SARS-CoV-2 transmission in the United States.
PLoS Computational Biology, 2023 To support decision-making and policy for managing epidemics of emerging pathogens, we present a model for inference and scenario analysis of SARS-CoV-2 transmission in the USA.

Methods Based on Polynomial Chaos for Quadratic Delay Differential Equations With Random Parameters
Proceedings in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Volume 26, Issue 1, March 2026.ABSTRACT We consider systems of delay differential equations (DDEs), including a single delay and a quadratic right‐hand side. In a system, parameters are replaced by random variables to perform an uncertainty quantification. Thus the solution of the DDEs becomes a random process, which can be represented by a series of the generalised polynomial chaos.

COVID-19: Analytics of contagion on inhomogeneous random social networks
Infectious Disease Modelling, 2021 Motivated by the need for robust models of the Covid-19 epidemic that adequately reflect the extreme heterogeneity of humans and society, this paper presents a novel framework that treats a population of N individuals as an inhomogeneous random social ...

Modifying the Network-Based Stochastic SEIR Model to Account for Quarantine
, 2020 In this article, we present a modification to the network-based stochastic SEIR epidemic model which allows for modifications to the underlying contact network to account for the effects of quarantine. We also discuss the changes needed to the model to incorporate situations where some proportion of the individuals who are infected remain asymptomatic ...

Forecasting Influenza Epidemics and Pandemics in the Age of AI and Machine Learning
Reviews in Medical Virology, Volume 36, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT Influenza's rapid evolution, driven by its segmented RNA genome, high mutation rate, and extensive animal reservoirs, underpins its capacity to cause recurring epidemics and unpredictable pandemics. Recent advances in artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) are transforming influenza forecasting by enabling the prediction of ...
