Spatially Heterogeneous Vaccine Coverage and Externalities in a Computational Model of Epidemics
Myong-Hun Chang,Troy Tassier +1 more
TL;DR: An agent-based computational model of epidemics with varying amounts of heterogeneity in regional vaccination coverage finds that the magnitude of externalities between regions with different levels of vaccine coverage depends crucially on how close the population is to herd immunity.

Modeling the effects of social distancing on the large-scale spreading of diseases
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of different social distancing schemes on the large scale spreading of diseases are studied, and it is shown that contention measures are more efficient if implemented and managed locally or globally and that model outcomes depend on how the full complexity of human interactions is taken into account.

Boosting Performance of Influenza Outbreak Prediction Framework
TL;DR: The parallelized version of the calibration algorithm introduced and the comparison of the available optimization methods allows to work with bigger incidence datasets and obtain influenza dynamics prediction in more reasonable time compared to the initial serial algorithm.

Modeling Approaches Toward Understanding Infectious Disease Transmission
Laura Skrip,Jeffrey P. Townsend +1 more
TL;DR: It is explained how models can be developed to enhance the understanding and predictive power over population-level disease trends, by capturing both fundamental aspects of transmission and also the effects of medical and behavioral interventions.

How fast is the linear chain trick? A rigorous analysis in the context of behavioral epidemiology
TL;DR: A prototype SIR model with vaccination at birth is analyzed in terms of the stability of its endemic equilibrium and it is showed that through the linear chain trick a distributed delay approaches a discrete delay at a linear rate.
