Basic SIR model

Proposed model

A transmission model consists of 3 compartments: susceptible (S), infected (I), recovered (R)

With the following assumptions:

And described by a system of 3 differential equations

\[ \begin{cases} \frac{dS(t)}{dt} = B(t) (1-p) - \lambda(t)S(t) - \mu S(t) \\ \frac{dI(t)}{dt} = \lambda(t)S(t) - \nu I(t) - \mu I(t) - \alpha I(t) \\ \frac{dR(t)}{dt} = B(t) p + \nu I(t) - \mu R(t) \end{cases} \]

Fitting data

To fit a basic SIR model, use sir_basic_model() and specify the following parameters

state <- c(S=4999, I=1, R=0)
parameters <- c(
  mu=1/75, # 1 divided by life expectancy (75 years old)
  alpha=0, # no disease-related death
  beta=0.0005, # transmission rate
  nu=1, # 1 year for infected to recover
  p=0 # no vaccination at birth
)
times <- seq(0, 250, by=0.1)
model <- sir_basic_model(times, state, parameters)

SIR model with constant Force of Infection at Endemic state

Proposed model

A transmission model consists of 3 compartments: susceptible (S), infected (I), recovered (R)

With the following assumptions:

Described by a system of 3 differential equations

\[ \begin{cases} \frac{ds(a)}{da} = -\lambda s(a) \\ \frac{di(a)}{da} = \lambda s(a) - \nu i(a) \\ \frac{dr(a)}{da} = \nu i(a) \end{cases} \]

parameters <- c(
  lambda = 0.05,
  nu=1/(14/365) # 2 weeks to recover

SIR model with sub populations

Proposed model

Extends on the SIR model by having interacting sub-populations (different age groups)

With K subpopulations, the WAIFW matrix or mixing matrix is given by

\[ C = \begin{bmatrix} \beta_{11} & \beta_{12} & ... & \beta_{1K} \\ \beta_{21} & \beta_{22} & ... & \beta_{2K} \\ \vdots & \vdots & ... & \vdots \\ \beta_{K1} & \beta_{K2} & ... & \beta_{KK} \\ \end{bmatrix} \]

The system of differential equations for the i\(th\) subpopulation is given by

\[ \begin{cases} \frac{dS_i(t)}{dt} = -(\sum^K_{j=1}\beta_{ij}I_j(t)) S_i(t) + N_i\mu_i - \mu_i S_i(t) \\ \frac{dI_i(t)}{dt} = (\sum^K_{j=1}\beta_{ij}I_j(t)) S_i(t) - (\nu_i + \mu_i) I_i(t) \\ \frac{dR_i(t)}{dt} = \nu_i I_i(t) - \mu_i R_i(t) \end{cases} \]

FItting data

To fit a SIR model with subpopulations, use sir_subpops_model() and specify the following parameters

k <- 2 # number of population
state <- c(
  # proportion of each compartment for each population
  s = c(0.8, 0.6), 
  i = c(0.2, 0.4),
  r = c(  0,   0)
)
beta_matrix <- c(
  c(0.05, 0.00),
  c(0.00, 0.05)

parameters <- list(
  beta = matrix(beta_matrix, nrow=k, ncol=k, byrow=TRUE),
  nu = c(1/30, 1/30),
  mu = 0.001,
  k = k
)
times<-seq(0,10000,by=0.5)

MSEIR model

Proposed model

Extends on SIR model with 2 additional compartments: maternal antibody (M) and exposed period (E)

And described by the following system of ordinary differential equation

\[ \begin{cases} \frac{dM(a)}{da} = -(\gamma + \mu(a))M(a) \\ \frac{dS(a)}{da} = \gamma M(a) - (\lambda(a) + \mu(a)) S(a) \\ \frac{dE(a)}{da} = \lambda(a) S(a) - (\sigma + \mu(a)) E(a) \\ \frac{dI(a)}{da} = \sigma(a) E(a) - (\nu + \mu(a)) I(a) \\ \frac{dR(a)}{da} = \nu I(a) - \mu(a) R(a) \end{cases} \]
