The impact of behavioral homophily and conformity on epidemic spreading in networks with large groups

Olivier Ribordy, Clara Granell, Guillaume St-Onge +3

Understanding how social behavior influences epidemic dynamics has become a central focus in mathematical epidemiology. In particular, \textit{behavioral homophily} (the tendency o…

Temporal and probabilistic comparisons of epidemic interventions

Mariah C. Boudreau, Andrea J. Allen, Nicholas J. Roberts +2

Forecasting disease spread is a critical tool to help public health officials design and plan public health interventions. However, the expected future state of an epidemic is not…

Simpson's paradox explains the ubiquity of nonlinear, threshold, and complex contagions

Laurent Hébert-Dufresne, Antoine Allard, Jean-Gabriel Young +2

Complex contagions describe systems where the probability or rate of contagious transmission is a nonlinear function of the exposure to contagious agents. These models were first s…

One pathogen does not an epidemic make: A review of interacting contagions, diseases, beliefs, and stories

Laurent Hébert-Dufresne, Yong-Yeol Ahn, Antoine Allard +15

From pathogens and computer viruses to genes and memes, contagion models have found widespread utility across the natural and social sciences. Despite their success and breadth of…

Network compression with configuration models and the minimum description length

Laurent Hébert-Dufresne, Jean-Gabriel Young, Alexander Daniels +2

Random network models, constrained to reproduce specific statistical features, are often used to represent and analyze network data and their mathematical descriptions. Chief among…

The low-rank hypothesis of complex systems

Vincent Thibeault, Antoine Allard, Patrick Desrosiers

Complex systems are high-dimensional nonlinear dynamical systems with intricate interactions among their constituents. To make interpretable predictions about their large-scale beh…
