An informational approach to uncover the age group interactions in epidemic spreading from macro analysis
Tiago Martinelli, Alberto Aleta, Francisco A. Rodrigues +1
We investigate the use of transfer entropy (TE) as a proxy to detect the contact patterns of the population in epidemic processes. We first apply the measure to a classical age-str…
On the effect of memory on the Prisoner's Dilemma game in correlated networks
Nastaran Lotfi, Francisco A. Rodrigues
Game theory is fundamental to understanding cooperation between agents. Mainly, the Prisoner's Dilemma is a well-known model that has been extensively studied in complex networks.…
Comparison of theoretical approaches for epidemic processes with waning immunity in complex networks
José Carlos M. Silva, Diogo H. Silva, Francisco A. Rodrigues +1
The role of waning immunity in basic epidemic models on networks has been undervalued while being noticeable fundamental for real epidemic outbreaks. One central question is which…
Epidemic spreading in populations of mobile agents with adaptive behavioral response
Paulo Cesar Ventura, Alberto Aleta, Francisco A. Rodrigues +1
Despite the advanced stage of epidemic modeling, there is a major demand for methods to incorporate behavioral responses to the spread of a disease such as social distancing and ad…
The rise and fall of countries in the global value chains
Luiz G. A. Alves, Giuseppe Mangioni, Francisco A. Rodrigues +2
Countries participate in global value chains by engaging in backward and forward transactions connecting multiple geographically dispersed production stages. Inspired by network th…
A Markov chain for metapopulations of small sizes with attraction landscape
Paulo C. Ventura, Eric K. Tokuda, Luciano da F. Costa +1
Mathematical models represent one of the fundamental ways of studying nature. In special, epidemic models have shown to be particularly useful in the understanding of the course of…
