COVID-19 vaccination strategies on dynamic networks
Quoc Huy Nguyen, Jessica Liebig, Md Shahzamal +2
Coronavirus disease (COVID-19), which was caused by SARS-CoV-2, has become a global public health concern. A great proportion of the world needs to be vaccinated in order to stop t…
Vaccination strategies on dynamic networks with indirect transmission links and limited contact information
Md Shahzamal, Raja Jurdak, Bernard Mans +2
Infectious diseases are still a major global burden for modern society causing 13 million deaths annually. One way to reduce the morbidity and mortality rates from infectious disea…
Identifying highly influential travellers for spreading disease on a public transport system
Ahmad El Shoghri, Jessica Liebig, Raja Jurdak +2
The recent outbreak of a novel coronavirus and its rapid spread underlines the importance of understanding human mobility. Enclosed spaces, such as public transport vehicles (e.g.…
How mobility patterns drive disease spread: A case study using public transit passenger card travel data
Ahmad El Shoghri, Jessica Liebig, Lauren Gardner +2
Outbreaks of infectious diseases present a global threat to human health and are considered a major health-care challenge. One major driver for the rapid spatial spread of diseases…
Generating dynamic contact graphs with indirect links
Md Shahzamal, Raja Jurdak, Bernard Mans +2
Graph models are widely used to study diffusion processes in contact networks. Recent data-driven research has highlighted the significance of indirect links, where interactions ar…
Indirect interactions influence contact network structure and diffusion dynamics
Md Shahzamal, Raja Jurdak, Bernard Mans +1
Interaction patterns at the individual level influence the behaviour of diffusion over contact networks. Most of the current diffusion models only consider direct interactions amon…
A Graph Model with Indirect Co-location Links
Md Shahzamal, Raja Jurdak, Bernard Mans +1
Graph models are widely used to analyse diffusion processes embedded in social contacts and to develop applications. A range of graph models are available to replicate the underlyi…
Impact of Indirect Contacts in Emerging Infectious Disease on Social Networks
Md Shahzamal, Raja Jurdak, Bernard Mans +2
Interaction patterns among individuals play vital roles in spreading infectious diseases. Understanding these patterns and integrating their impact in modeling diffusion dynamics o…
Modeling Reflexivity of Social Systems in Disease Spread
Minkyoung Kim, Raja Jurdak, Dean Paini
Diffusion processes in a social system are governed by external triggers and internal excitations via interactions between individuals over social networks. Underlying mechanisms a…
Universal Components of Real-world Diffusion Dynamics based on Point Processes
Minkyoung Kim, Raja Jurdak, Dean Paini
Bursts in human and natural activities are highly clustered in time, suggesting that these activities are influenced by previous events within the social or natural system. Bursty…
Diffusion in Colocation Contact Networks: the Impact of Nodal Spatiotemporal Dynamics
Bryce Thomas, Raja Jurdak, Kun Zhao +1
Temporal contact networks are studied to understand dynamic spreading phenomena such as communicable diseases or information dissemination. To establish how spatiotemporal dynamics…
Multi-scale Population and Mobility Estimation with Geo-tagged Tweets
Jiajun Liu, Kun Zhao, Saeed Khan +2
Recent outbreaks of Ebola and Dengue viruses have again elevated the significance of the capability to quickly predict disease spread in an emergent situation. However, existing ap…
The Impact of Cost and Network Topology on Urban Mobility: A Study of Public Bicycle Usage in 2 U.S. Cities
Raja Jurdak
Understanding the drivers of urban mobility is vital for epidemiology, urban planning, and communication networks. Human movements have so far been studied by observing people's po…
