Unifying incidence and prevalence under a time-varying general branching process
Mikko S. Pakkanen, Xenia Miscouridou, Matthew J. Penn +5
Renewal equations are a popular approach used in modelling the number of new infections, i.e., incidence, in an outbreak. We develop a stochastic model of an outbreak based on a ti…
Inference of COVID-19 epidemiological distributions from Brazilian hospital data
Iwona Hawryluk, Thomas A. Mellan, Henrique H. Hoeltgebaum +8
Knowing COVID-19 epidemiological distributions, such as the time from patient admission to death, is directly relevant to effective primary and secondary care planning, and moreove…
On the derivation of the renewal equation from an age-dependent branching process: an epidemic modelling perspective
Swapnil Mishra, Tresnia Berah, Thomas A. Mellan +6
Renewal processes are a popular approach used in modelling infectious disease outbreaks. In a renewal process, previous infections give rise to future infections. However, while th…
