Tracking dynamics of superspreading through contacts, exposures, and transmissions in edge-based network epidemics
Ari S. Freedman, Bjarke F. Nielsen, Maximillian M. Nguyen +2
Infectious disease superspreading caused by heterogeneity in contact behavior has been observed to be an important determinant of epidemic dynamics and size in both empirical and t…

Localized risk perception triggers early behavioral adaptations in epidemics on networks
Baltazar Espinoza, Jimmy Calvo-Monge, Fabio Sanchez +2
The contact structure of the population shapes the progression of epidemics. Nonetheless, the joint evolution of individual behavioral adaptations and disease dynamics on networks…

The Complex Interplay Between Risk Tolerance and the Spread of Infectious Diseases
Maximilian Nguyen, Ari Freedman, Matthew Cheung +4
Risk-driven behavior provides a feedback mechanism through which individuals both shape and are collectively affected by an epidemic. We introduce a general and flexible compartmen…
