Accuracy of discrete-and continuous-time mean-field theories for epidemic processes on complex networks

DH Silva, FA Rodrigues, SC Ferreira - Physical Review E, 2024 - APS
Discrete-and continuous-time approaches are frequently used to model the role of
heterogeneity on dynamical interacting agents on the top of complex networks. While, on the …

Master equation analysis of mesoscopic localization in contagion dynamics on higher-order networks

G St-Onge, V Thibeault, A Allard, LJ Dubé… - Physical Review E, 2021 - APS
Simple models of infectious diseases tend to assume random mixing of individuals, but real
interactions are not random pairwise encounters: they occur within various types of …

Modeling communicable diseases, human mobility, and epidemics: A review

D Soriano‐Paños, W Cota, SC Ferreira… - Annalen der …, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
