Improving wastewater-based epidemiology through strategic placement of samplers

Anthony J Wood, Jessica Enright, Aeron R Sanchez +2

Wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) is a fast emerging method for passively monitoring diseases in a population. By measuring the concentrations of pathogenic materials in wastewat…

Modelling plausible scenarios for the Omicron SARS-CoV-2 variant from early-stage surveillance

Christopher J. Banks, Ewan Colman, Anthony Wood +2

We used a spatially explicit agent-based model of SARS-CoV-2 transmission combined with spatially fine-grained COVID-19 observation data from Public Health Scotland to investigate…

Language statistics at different spatial, temporal, and grammatical scales

Fernanda Sánchez-Puig, Rogelio Lozano-Aranda, Dante Pérez-Méndez +5

Statistical linguistics has advanced considerably in recent decades as data has become available. This has allowed researchers to study how statistical properties of languages chan…

Spontaneous divergence of disease status in an economic epidemiological game

Ewan Colman, Nicholas Hanley, Rowland R. Kao

We introduce a game inspired by the challenges of disease management in livestock farming and the transmission of endemic disease through a trade network. Success in this game come…

Rank dynamics of word usage at multiple scales

José A. Morales, Ewan Colman, Sergio Sánchez +6

The recent dramatic increase in online data availability has allowed researchers to explore human culture with unprecedented detail, such as the growth and diversification of langu…

The reachability of contagion in temporal contact networks: how disease latency can exploit the rhythm of human behavior

Ewan Colman, Kristen Spies, Shweta Bansal

The symptoms of many infectious diseases influence their host to withdraw from social activity limiting their own potential to spread. Successful transmission therefore requires th…

Separating temporal and topological effects in walk-based network centrality

Ewan Colman, Nathaniel Charlton

The recently introduced concept of dynamic communicability is a valuable tool for ranking the importance of nodes in a temporal network. Two metrics, broadcast score and receive sc…

Memory and burstiness in dynamic networks

Ewan R. Colman, Danica Vukadinović Greetham

A discrete-time random process is described which can generate bursty sequences of events. A Bernoulli process, where the probability of an event occurring at time is given by…

Local rewiring rules for evolving complex networks

Ewan R. Colman, Geoff J. Rodgers

The effects of link rewiring are considered for the class of directed networks where each node has the same fixed out-degree. We model a network generated by three mechanisms that…

Kinetics of node splitting in evolving complex networks

E. R. Colman, G. J. Rodgers

We introduce a collection of complex networks generated by a combination of preferential attachment and a previously unexamined process of "splitting" nodes of degree into …

The Resistance Of Randomly Grown Trees

Ewan Colman, Geoff Rodgers

An electrical network with the structure of a random tree is considered: starting from a root vertex, in one iteration each leaf (a vertex with zero or one adjacent edges) of the t…

Complex scale-free networks with tunable power-law exponent and clustering

ER Colman, GJ Rodgers

We introduce a network evolution process motivated by the network of citations in the scientific literature. In each iteration of the process a node is born and directed links are…
