I discuss the acquisition and use of "background" data in mathematical epidemiology models, advocating a proactive approach to the incorporation of said data. I illustrate various mechanisms for acquiring data, mainly from open data sources...
Releasing Wolbachia-infected Aedes aegypti to prevent the spread of dengue virus: A mathematical study [0.03%]
释放携带沃尔巴克体的埃及伊蚊以防止登革热病毒传播:一项数学研究

Wolbachia is a bacterium that is present in 60% of insects but it is not generally found in Aedes aegypti, the primary vector responsible for the transmission of dengue virus, Zika virus, and other human diseases caused by RNA viruses. Wolb...

The initial exponential growth rate of an epidemic is an important measure of the severeness of the epidemic, and is also closely related to the basic reproduction number. Estimating the growth rate from the epidemic curve can be a challeng...

A powerful investigative tool in biology is to consider not a single mathematical model but a collection of models designed to explore different working hypotheses and select the best model in that collection. In these lecture notes, the us...
Optimal control strategies for preventing hepatitis B infection and reducing chronic liver cirrhosis incidence [0.03%]

Advanced liver cirrhosis has become life-threatening among non-communicable diseases nowadays. Cirrhosis, the terminal stage of liver diseases in which the liver develops scarring as a result of various long-term continuous damages. Among l...
Qualitative analysis of a stochastic SEITR epidemic model with multiple stages of infection and treatment [0.03%]
具有多阶段感染和治疗的随机SEITR流行病模型的定性分析

We present a mathematical analysis of the transmission of certain diseases using a stochastic susceptible-exposed-infectious-treated-recovered (SEITR) model with multiple stages of infection and treatment and explore the effects of treatmen...
Mathematical model of zika virus dynamics with vector control and sensitivity analysis [0.03%]

In this paper, we have developed and analyzed a deterministic Zika model considering both vector and sexual transmission route with the effect of human awareness and vector control in the absence of disease induce death. To formulate the mo...
Epidemics on networks: Reducing disease transmission using health emergency declarations and peer communication [0.03%]

Understanding individual decisions in a world where communications and information move instantly via cell phones and the internet, contributes to the development and implementation of policies aimed at stopping or ameliorating the spread o...
Controlling infection in predator-prey systems with transmission dynamics [0.03%]
具有传输动力学的捕食者-猎物系统中的感染控制

We propose in this paper a prophylactic treatment strategy for a predator-prey system. The objective is to fight against the propagation of an infectious disease within two populations, one of which preys on the other. This propagation is m...
Mathematical analysis of a Wolbachia invasive model with imperfect maternal transmission and loss of Wolbachia infection [0.03%]

Arboviral infections, especially dengue, continue to cause significant health burden in their endemic regions. One of the strategies to tackle these infections is to replace the main vector agent, Ae. aegypti, with the ones incapable of tra...
