A generalized inverse for graphs with absorption
Karly Jacobsen, Joseph Tien
We consider weighted, directed graphs with a notion of absorption on the vertices, related to absorbing random walks on graphs. We define a generalized inverse of the graph Laplaci…

The large graph limit of a stochastic epidemic model on a dynamic multilayer network
Karly A. Jacobsen, Mark G. Burch, Joseph H. Tien +1
We consider an SIR-type (Susceptible Infected Recovered) stochastic epidemic process with multiple modes of transmission on a contact network. The network is given by a…

Network-Based Analysis of a Small Ebola Outbreak
Mark G. Burch, Karly A. Jacobsen, Joseph H. Tien +1
We present a method for estimating epidemic parameters in network-based stochastic epidemic models when the total number of infections is assumed to be small. We illustrate the met…
