Quarantines as a Targeted Immunization Strategy
Jessica Hoffmann, Matt Jordan, Constantine Caramanis
In the context of the recent COVID-19 outbreak, quarantine has been used to "flatten the curve" and slow the spread of the disease. In this paper, we show that this is not the only…
Learning Mixtures of Graphs from Epidemic Cascades
Jessica Hoffmann, Soumya Basu, Surbhi Goel +1
We consider the problem of learning the weighted edges of a balanced mixture of two undirected graphs from epidemic cascades. While mixture models are popular modeling tools, algor…
Learning Graphs from Noisy Epidemic Cascades
Jessica Hoffmann, Constantine Caramanis
We consider the problem of learning the weighted edges of a graph by observing the noisy times of infection for multiple epidemic cascades on this graph. Past work has considered t…
The Cost of Uncertainty in Curing Epidemics
Jessica Hoffmann, Constantine Caramanis
Motivated by the study of controlling (curing) epidemics, we consider the spread of an SI process on a known graph, where we have a limited budget to use to transition infected nod…
