A Bayesian spatio-temporal method for disease outbreak detection
A system that monitors a region for a disease outbreak is called a disease outbreak surveillance system. A spatial surveillance system searches for patterns of disease outbreak in spatial subregions of the monitored region. A temporal surveillance system looks for emerging patterns of outbreak disease by analyzing how patterns have changed during recent periods of time. If a non-spatial, non-te...
متن کاملA Bayesian spatio‐temporal approach for real‐time detection of disease outbreaks: a case study
BACKGROUND For researchers and public health agencies, the complexity of high-dimensional spatio-temporal data in surveillance for large reporting networks presents numerous challenges, which include low signal-to-noise ratios, spatial and temporal dependencies, and the need to characterize uncertainties. Central to the problem in the context of disease outbreaks is a decision structure that re...
متن کاملA Bayesian Outbreak Detection Method for Influenza-Like Illness
Epidemic outbreak detection is an important problem in public health and the development of reliable methods for outbreak detection remains an active research area. In this paper we introduce a Bayesian method to detect outbreaks of influenza-like illness from surveillance data. The rationale is that, during the early phase of the outbreak, surveillance data changes from autoregressive dynamics...
متن کاملBayesian Nonparametric Spatio-Temporal Models for Disease Incidence Data
Typically, disease incidence or mortality data are available as rates or counts for specified regions, collected over time. We propose Bayesian nonparametric spatial modeling approaches to analyze such data. We develop a hierarchical specification using spatial random effects modeled with a Dirichlet process prior. The Dirichlet process is centered around a multivariate normal distribution. Thi...
متن کاملA New Wavelet Based Spatio-temporal Method for Magnification of Subtle Motions in Video
Video magnification is a computational procedure to reveal subtle variations during video frames that are invisible to the naked eye. A new spatio-temporal method which makes use of connectivity based mapping of the wavelet sub-bands is introduced here for exaggerating of small motions during video frames. In this method, firstly the wavelet transformed frames are mapped to connectivity space a...
