Effects of variable neighbourhood on spreading processes
Sergei Taraskin, Francisco J. Pérez-Reche
A theoretical framework for the description of Susceptible-Infected-Removed (SIR) spreading processes with synergistic transmission of infection on a lattice is developed. The mode…
Prediction of invasion from the early stage of an epidemic
Francisco J. Perez-Reche, Franco M. Neri, Sergei N. Taraskin +1
Predictability of undesired events is a question of great interest in many scientific disciplines including seismology, economy, and epidemiology. Here, we focus on the predictabil…
Prominent effect of soil network heterogeneity on microbial invasion
F. J. Perez-Reche, S. N. Taraskin, W. Otten +3
Using a network representation for real soil samples and mathematical models for microbial spread, we show that the structural heterogeneity of the soil habitat may have a very sig…
Epidemics in Networks of Spatially Correlated Three-dimensional Root Branching Structures
T. P. Handford, F. -J. Perez-Reche, S. N. Taraskin +4
Using digitized images of the three-dimensional, branching structures for root systems of bean seedlings, together with analytical and numerical methods that map a common 'SIR' epi…
Synergy in spreading processes: from exploitative to explorative foraging strategies
Francisco J. Perez-Reche, Jonathan J. Ludlam, Sergei N. Taraskin +1
An epidemiological model which incorporates synergistic effects that allow the infectivity and/or susceptibility of hosts to be dependent on the number of infected neighbours is pr…
Complexity and anisotropy in host morphology make populations safer against epidemic outbreaks
Francisco J. Perez-Reche, Sergei N. Taraskin, Luciano da F. Costa +2
One of the challenges in epidemiology is to account for the complex morphological structure of hosts such as plant roots, crop fields, farms, cells, animal habitats and social netw…
