Cluster formation for multi-strain infections with cross-immunity.
Many infectious diseases exist in several pathogenic variants, or strains, which interact via cross-immunity. It is observed that strains tend to self-organise into groups, or clusters. The aim of this paper is to investigate cluster formation. Computations demonstrate that clustering is independent of the model used, and is an intrinsic feature of the strain system itself. We observe that an o...
متن کاملTwo-phase importance sampling for inference about transmission trees
There has been growing interest in the statistics community to develop methods for inferring transmission pathways of infectious pathogens from molecular sequence data. For many datasets, the computational challenge lies in the huge dimension of the missing data. Here, we introduce an importance sampling scheme in which the transmission trees and phylogenies of pathogens are both sampled from r...
متن کاملAn Hybrid Data Stream Summarizing Approach by Sampling and Clustering
Computer systems generate a large amount of data that, in terms of space and time, is very expensive even impossible to store. Besides this, many applications need to keep an historical view of such data in order to provide historical aggregated information, perform data mining tasks or detect anomalous behavior in the computer systems. One solution is to treat the data as streams that can be p...
متن کاملCanopy Fast Sampling with Cover Trees
Hierarchical Bayesian models often capture distributions over a very large number of distinct atoms. The need for these models arises when organizing huge amount of unsupervised data, for instance, features extracted using deep convnets that can be exploited to organize abundant unlabeled images. Inference for hierarchical Bayesian models in such cases can be rather nontrivial, leading to appro...
متن کاملAnalysis of symmetries in models of multi-strain infections.
In mathematical studies of the dynamics of multi-strain diseases caused by antigenically diverse pathogens, there is a substantial interest in analytical insights. Using the example of a generic model of multi-strain diseases with cross-immunity between strains, we show that a significant understanding of the stability of steady states and possible dynamical behaviours can be achieved when the ...
