Use of penalized basis splines in estimation of characteristics of seasonal and sporadic infectious disease outbreaks

2020-07-17

Abstract excerpt

There is often a need to estimate the characteristics of epidemics or seasonality from infectious disease data. For instance, accurately estimating the start and end date of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) epidemics can be used to optimize the initiation of prophylactic medication. Many widely-used methods for describing these characteristics begin with a regression model fit to a time series of disease incidenc...
