Stochastic modelling of the spatial spread of influenza in Germany
نویسندگان
چکیده
Abstract: In geographical epidemiology, disease counts are typically available in discrete spatial units and at discrete time-points. For example, surveillance data on infectious diseases usually consists of weekly counts of new infections in pre-defined geographical areas. Similarly, but on a different timescale, cancer registries typically report yearly incidence or mortality counts in administrative regions.

Proposing A stochastic model for spread of corona virus dynamics in Nigeria
The emergence of corona virus (COVID-19) has create a great public concern as the outbreak is still ongoing and government are taking actions such as holiday extension, travel restriction, temporary closure of public work place, borders, schools, quarantine/isolation, social distancing and so on. To mitigate the spread, we proposed and analyzed a stochastic model for the continue spread of coro...

Background and Objectives: Infection of birds to Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) and their extinction impose heavily losses on the livestock and poultry industry along with public health. Nowadays, due to the volume and variety of data, the need of using location-based technologies and data mining sciences has become inevitable. This study aims to model the prevalence of avian influenz...

Infectious respiratory diseases that are spread by interpersonal contact, such as influenza, tuberculosis and measles, cause a significant burden of disease worldwide. Influenza causes annual epidemics resulting in the infection of approximately 5-10% of adults and 20-30% of children worldwide, causing 250,000 to 500,000 deaths annually as estimated by the World Health Organization [WHO 2009]; ...
متن کاملSPOT PATTERNS IN GRAY SCOTT MODEL WITH APPLICATION TO EPIDEMIC CONTROL
In this work, we analyse a pair of two-dimensional coupled reaction-diusion equations known as the Gray-Scott model, in which spot patterns have been observed. We focus on stationary patterns, and begin by deriving the asymptotic scaling of the parameters and variables necessary for the analysis of these patterns. A complete bifurcation study of these solutions is presented. The main mathematic...
متن کاملSpatial analysis of influenza incidence in EMRO using flexible scan statistics
Introduction: Influenza is an infectious and severe respiratory disease. It is one of the major problems of public health. In order to determine the spatial distribution and areas with over-expected of a disease including influenza, it can be effective in identifying environmental hazards and fair distribution of health services. In this study, the geographical distribution of the influenza and...
