Cox-Hawkes: doubly stochastic spatiotemporal Poisson processes

Xenia Miscouridou, Samir Bhatt, George Mohler +2

Hawkes processes are point process models that have been used to capture self-excitatory behavior in social interactions, neural activity, earthquakes and viral epidemics. They can…

Epidemia: An R Package for Semi-Mechanistic Bayesian Modelling of Infectious Diseases using Point Processes

James A. Scott, Axel Gandy, Swapnil Mishra +4

This article introduces epidemia, an R package for Bayesian, regression-oriented modeling of infectious diseases. The implemented models define a likelihood for all observed data w…

Gaussian Process Nowcasting: Application to COVID-19 Mortality Reporting

Iwona Hawryluk, Henrique Hoeltgebaum, Swapnil Mishra +7

Updating observations of a signal due to the delays in the measurement process is a common problem in signal processing, with prominent examples in a wide range of fields. An impor…

Semi-Mechanistic Bayesian Modeling of COVID-19 with Renewal Processes

Samir Bhatt, Neil Ferguson, Seth Flaxman +3

We propose a general Bayesian approach to modeling epidemics such as COVID-19. The approach grew out of specific analyses conducted during the pandemic, in particular an analysis c…

Referenced Thermodynamic Integration for Bayesian Model Selection: Application to COVID-19 Model Selection

Iwona Hawryluk, Swapnil Mishra, Seth Flaxman +2

Model selection is a fundamental part of the applied Bayesian statistical methodology. Metrics such as the Akaike Information Criterion are commonly used in practice to select mode…

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…
