Sentence examples for epidemic parameters from inspiring English sources

Thus, more realistic models should divide the host population into groups to consider the disease transmission in heterogeneous cases, which means that the host population should be classified into different groups and the vital epidemic parameters vary among different population groups.

Two-way sensitivity analyses were also conducted to determine the annual insurance premiums of the different strategies under different attack rates, case-fatality rates, and overall vaccine effectiveness; these are the key epidemic parameters which generate the greatest uncertainty in the outcome.

Epidemics characterized by and can occur over seasons of different lengths, provided that the epidemic parameters αE, βF, and βC are rescaled appropriately.

The above comparison assumes that the epidemic parameters of the SEIR model are known and that their values are characteristic of the "microscopic" dynamics of the infectious disease, at the level of individual face-to-face contacts.

In calculating the aggregate uncertainty for all state files, we assume that uncertainty around the prevalence and incidence trends is uncorrelated across states but that uncertainty around epidemic parameters, such as progression and mortality rates is perfectly correlated across states.

This implies that, according to this model, if the World Bank sends a message to the international aid community, likely 94% of organizations will receive it eventually, assuming that the real unobservable epidemics parameter β is equal to or lower than 0.15. Figure 9 Different infection dynamics in the organization-organization citation network.

Finally, to compensate major unexplained peaks (outliers), residuals greater than 1.5 standard deviations, lasting 3 week or more and not explained by IA or extreme temperatures were included as artificial epidemic-parameters to compensate these (∑epi).

Correspondence between the epidemic rate parameters (αE, βC, βF) and the parameters (Ωint, Ωpfl).

The sensitivity analysis based on the mathematical technique has been performed to determine the importance of the epidemic model parameters in making strategies for controlling malaria.

Nonetheless, historical records can be of use in extracting defensible information pertaining to an individual epidemic's parameters, while not extrapolating to an etiologic conclusion.

Phylodynamic approaches are increasingly being used to obtain estimates of sequence evolution rates and epidemic network parameters [ 24], with mathematical modelling demonstrating that inter-subtype recombination has clearly been a substantial force in generating HIV-1 group M diversity [ 25].
