New Python and R scripts

Thanks to Lisa recap (modelling.tex) and after the discussion (some interesting Heike's comments) I  wrote a new toy model with our "Wises" and "Riskies" guys: giellespie4.py and Giellespie_epidem2.R (different names but same system and simulations). The new model is explicitly including social behaviour and the effects on risky and ...

Python and R codes

I uploaded to the repository (simulations) two scripts one in Python and one in R which implement Gillespie algorithm on a simple toy model (SIR - like) that we discussed in the meeting on the 16 of May.

Gillespie's algorithms

I uploaded Gillespie's papers in which his algorithm is fully described. I also upload the pdf file of my presentation that now contains also an appendix in which explained the probability of each reaction in either the Gillespie setting and the "generalised case". Gillespie setting assumes reactions with exponentially distributed waiting time...

Lives vs Dollars - modeling the pros and cons of reopening the US economy

While reported infections from Covid-19 and deaths are plateauing is some US states, the damage to the economy is getting worse every day, so it's not surprising that the rationale for easing restrictions to business and personal freedoms is hotly debated. Models are emerging that try to support evidence-based decision making. Here's two examples. ...

Dynamic Modeling Meets Machine Learning in Epidemiology

Dear all, We chanced upon a couple of very interesting papers about how dynamic modeling is transitioning to a (machine learning based) data-driven approach. This is also relevant for those who attend Prof Markus Kirkilionis' Heidelberg lecture on mathematical modeling! The first paper introduces Universal Differential Equation (UDE) that blen...
