Learning virulence-transmission relationships using causal inference
Sudam Surasinghe, C. Brandon Ogbunugafor
The relationship between traits that influence pathogen virulence and transmission is part of the central canon of the evolution and ecology of infectious disease. However, identif…
Structural causal influence (SCI) captures the forces of social inequality in models of disease dynamics
Sudam Surasinghe, Swathi Nachiar Manivannan, Samuel V. Scarpino +2
Mathematical modeling has played a central role in understanding how infectious disease transmission manifests in populations. These models have demonstrated the importance of key…
Optimal virulence strategies in epidemiological models with asymptomatic transmission
C. Brandon Ogbunugafor, Sudam Surasinghe
Asymptomatic infection has gained notoriety as an important feature of infectious disease dynamics. Despite increasing attention, there have been few rigorous examinations of how a…
Analysis of tidal flows through the Strait of Gibraltar using Dynamic Mode Decomposition
Sathsara Dias, Sudam Surasinghe, Kanaththa Priyankara +4
The Strait of Gibraltar is a region characterized by intricate oceanic sub-mesoscale features, influenced by topography, tidal forces, instabilities, and nonlinear hydraulic proces…
