Estimating the distribution of time to extinction of infectious diseases in mean-field approaches

2020-07-11

Abstract excerpt

A key challenge for many infectious diseases is to predict the time to extinction under specific interventions. In general this question requires the use of stochastic models which recognise the inherent individual-based, chance-driven nature of the dynamics; yet stochastic models are inherently computationally expensive, especially when parameter uncertainty also needs to be incorporated. Deterministic models are...
