Dynamical Survival Analysis for Epidemic Modeling
Rempała, Grzegorz A.; KhudaBukhsh, Wasiur R.
Abstract
This chapter describes the dynamical survival analysis (DSA) method for modeling infectious diseases. This method provides a powerful framework for analyzing compartmental models of large epidemics, such as the popular susceptible-infected-recovered (SIR) model. In the DSA framework, traditional SIR mean-field differential equations are interpreted in terms of population infectious pressure instead of average infection counts. This simplifies statistical inference for the epidemic process parameters, allowing for top-down analysis of the epidemic data using the mass transfer model based on lumping of the individual-based SIR stochastic model. The individual dynamics of infections are often approximately independent in large populations, which further simplifies the approach according to the propagation of chaos principle. The chapter summarizes the general principles of DSA and includes a small numerical example that illustrates the statistical inference procedure for SIR models using the new framework.
