AIDS Epidemic Modeling With Different Demographic Structures
The most urgent public health problem today is to devise effective strategies to minimize the destruction caused by the AIDS epidemic. Mathematical models based on the underlying transmission mechanisms of the AIDS virus can help the medical/scientific community understand and anticipate its spread in different populations and evaluate the potential effectiveness of different approaches for bri...
متن کاملReasoning about Gradual Changes of Topological Relationships
Spatial relationships between geographic objects are time-dependent and can change due to various phenomena. Water levels of rivers or lakes may rise causing flodding of buildings and roads near the shore line; contamination of soils may spread causing hazards for people living in affected areas; hurricanes may pass over islands or reach the continent; and market areas may expand so that they e...
متن کاملAction blindness in response to gradual changes.
The goal of this study is to characterize observers' abilities to detect gradual changes and to explore putative dissociations between conscious experience of change and behavioral adaptation to a changing stimulus. We developed a new experimental paradigm in which, on each trial, participants were shown a dot pattern on the screen. Next, the pattern disappeared and participants had to reproduc...
متن کاملStochastic Epidemic Modeling
We review the topic of stochastic epidemic modeling with emphasis on compartmental stochastic models. A main theme is the usefulness of the correspondence between these and their large population deterministic limits, which describe dynamical systems. The dynamics of an ODE system informs us of the deterministic skeleton upon which the behavior of corresponding stochastic systems are built. In ...
متن کاملModeling the opioid epidemic
Opioid addiction has become a global epidemic and a national health crisis in recent years, with the number of opioid overdose fatalities steadily increasing since the 1990s. In contrast to the dynamics of a typical illicit drug or disease epidemic, opioid addiction has its roots in legal, prescription medication a fact which greatly increases the exposed population and provides additional drug...
