Approximation of epidemic models by diffusion processes and their statistical inference.
Multidimensional continuous-time Markov jump processes [Formula: see text] on [Formula: see text] form a usual set-up for modeling [Formula: see text]-like epidemics. However, when facing incomplete epidemic data, inference based on [Formula: see text] is not easy to be achieved. Here, we start building a new framework for the estimation of key parameters of epidemic models based on statistics ...
متن کاملA Statistical Study of two Diffusion Processes on Torus and Their Applications
Diffusion Processes such as Brownian motions and Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes are the classes of stochastic processes that have been investigated by researchers in various disciplines including biological sciences. It is usually assumed that the outcomes of these processes are laid on the Euclidean spaces. However, some data in physical, chemical and biological phenomena indicate that they cann...
متن کاملStatistical Inference for Stochastic Epidemic Models
We consider continuous-time stochastic compartmental models which can be applied in veterinary epidemiology to model the within-herd dynamics of infectious diseases. We focus on an extension of Markovian epidemic models, allowing the infectious period of an individual to follow a Weibull distribution, resulting in more flexible modelling for many diseases. Following a Bayesian approach we show ...
متن کاملStatistical Inference for Partially Observed Diffusion Processes
I would like to express my gratitude to my supervisor Susanne Ditlevsen, for scientific advise and her never failing positivity toward her students. Also a very special thanks to Omiros Papaspilioupoulos who has been a big inspiration and for his patience during numerous Skype conversations; always encouraging and full of support and good ideas. Great thanks are also due to Mathieu Kessler for ...
متن کاملExact Statistical Inference for Some Parametric Nonhomogeneous Poisson Processes
Nonhomogeneous Poisson processes (NHPPs) are often used to model recurrent events, and there is thus a need to check model fit for such models. We study the problem of obtaining exact goodness-of-fit tests for certain parametric NHPPs, using a method based on Monte Carlo simulation conditional on sufficient statistics. A closely related way of obtaining exact confidence intervals in parametri...
