Epidemic Simulation and Mitigation via Evolutionary Computation
… computer science, and mathematics to generate epidemic models, vaccines, and vaccination strategies to mitigate unfavourable outcomes. To this end, a generative representation to create personal contact networks, representing the social connections within a population, known as the Local …

Emerging Variants and Fading Immunity: Analyzing the Impact in Epidemic Modeling
… informed responses to control and mitigate the epidemic. This thesis aims to develop a model that can provide deeper insights into how epidemics progress and behave. Accurate epidemic simulation can provide valuable insights into how an epidemic affects the population. This thesis considers both …

Computational Cost Analysis of Large-Scale Agent-Based Epidemic Simulations
Agent-based epidemic simulation (ABES) is a powerful and realistic approach for studying the impacts of disease dynamics and complex interventions on the spread of an infection in the population. Among many ABES systems, EpiSimdemics comes closest to the popular agent-based epidemic simulation …

Evolving Weighted Networks to Simulate Epidemics and Lockdowns
Simulating epidemics is vital to understanding their effect on human populations, and developing models to provide insights into epidemic behaviour is a primary goal of this thesis. A generative evolutionary algorithm is used to evolve weighted personal contact networks that represent physical …

Modeling and Computation of Complex Interventions in Large-scale Epidemiological Simulations using SQL and Distributed Database
… computing (HPC) based large-scale epidemic simulations. In the Indemics framework, interventions are supplied from an external, standalone database which proved to be an effective way of implementing interventions. Although this setup performs well for simple interventions and small …

A Database Supported Modeling Environment for Pandemic Planning and Course of Action Analysis
… 2003 SARS. In addition to analyzing the historic epidemic data, computational simulation of epidemic propagation processes and disease control strategies can help us understand the spatio-temporal dynamics of epidemics in the laboratory. Consequently, the public can be better prepared and the …

Probabilistic Modeling of Multi-relational and Multivariate Discrete Data
… and demonstrate its feasibility using an epidemic simulation application. Modeling data with multivariate count responses is a challenging problem due to the discrete nature of the responses. Existing methods for univariate count responses cannot be easily extended to the multivariate case …
