Transient Dynamics of Epidemic Spreading and Its Mitigation on Large Networks
[article]
2019
arXiv
pre-print
In this paper, we aim to understand the transient dynamics of a susceptible-infected (SI) epidemic spreading process on a large network. ...
As its applications, we further develop vaccination policies with or without knowledge of already-infected nodes, to mitigate the future epidemic spreading to the extent possible, and demonstrate their ...
In this case, the spread of an epidemic already took place over the large-scale network. ...

Time-dependent heterogeneity leads to transient suppression of the COVID-19 epidemic, not herd immunity
2021

Epidemics generally spread through a succession of waves that reflect factors on multiple timescales. ...
Transient and long-term levels of heterogeneity are estimated using empirical data from the COVID-19 epidemic and from real-life face-to-face contact networks. ...

Social Heterogeneity Drives Complex Patterns of the COVID-19 Pandemic: Insights From a Novel Stochastic Heterogeneous Epidemic Model (SHEM)
2021
Frontiers in Physics
The design of our new model allows it to be applied in future studies of real-world scenarios on any scale, limited only by computing memory and the ability to determine the underlying topology and parameters ...
We investigated this hypothesis by developing and using a new Stochastic Heterogeneous Epidemic Model that focuses on subpopulations that are vulnerable in the sense of having an increased likelihood of ...
It follows that it is possible to control the spread of the epidemic through the mitigation of hotspot amplification. ...

How dynamic social activity shapes an epidemic: waves, plateaus, and endemic state
[article]
2021
medRxiv
pre-print
It is well recognized that population heterogeneity plays an important role in the spread of epidemics. ...
Individual waves are suppressed at the state of Transient Collective Immunity (TCI), which subsequently degrades due to the dynamic nature of social activity. ...
On one hand, available high-resolution data on real-world temporal contact networks allows direct modeling of epidemic spread on those networks. ...

Stochastic social behavior coupled to COVID-19 dynamics leads to waves, plateaus and an endemic state
[article]
2021
arXiv
pre-print
It is well recognized that population heterogeneity plays an important role in the spread of epidemics. ...
Our model captures multiple features of real-life epidemics such as COVID-19, including prolonged plateaus and multiple waves, which are transiently suppressed due to the dynamic nature of social activity ...

Coupled Dynamic Model of Resource Diffusion and Epidemic Spreading in Time-Varying Multiplex Networks
2021
Complexity
For that, we propose a coupled resource-epidemic (RNR-SIS) dynamic model (coupled model for short) on a time-varying multiplex network to synchronously simulate the resource diffusion and epidemic spreading ...
Thus, the coupled dynamics of resource diffusion and epidemic spreading have been widely investigated when the recovery of diseases significantly depends on the resources from neighbors in static social ...

An Epidemic Spreading Model on the Adaptive Dual networks
2017
IOSR Journal of Humanities and Social Science
By constructing two adaptive networks, we consider a new link breaking phenomenon on the epidemic spreading process and the heterogeneity of the link breaking probability. ...
In this paper, we carry out an epidemic spreading model on the adaptive dual network based on the machine to study the interplay between the two processes. ...

Such temporal data capture the dynamics of social networks on a timescale relevant to epidemic spreading and can potentially lead to better ways to analyze, forecast, and prevent epidemics. ...
Infectious diseases can be considered to spread over social networks of people or animals. ...

The role of social structure and dynamics in the maintenance of endemic disease
2021
Behavioral Ecology and Sociobiology
However, it can be just as important to understand how social networks can contribute to endemic disease dynamics, in which pathogens are maintained at stable levels for prolonged periods of time. ...
Social interactions are required for the direct transmission of infectious diseases. Consequently, the social network structure of populations plays a key role in shaping infectious disease dynamics. ...
Here, it is important to note that, in the context of network-based epidemiology, endemic disease is not simply a successfully mitigated epidemic. ...
