Pairwise Accelerated Failure Time Regression Models for Infectious Disease Transmission in Close‐Contact Groups With External Sources of Infection (2024)
Journal Article
Sharker, Y., Diallo, Z., KhudaBukhsh, W. R., & Kenah, E. (2024). Pairwise Accelerated Failure Time Regression Models for Infectious Disease Transmission in Close‐Contact Groups With External Sources of Infection. Statistics in Medicine, 43(27), 5138-5154. https://doi.org/10.1002/sim.10226

Many important questions in infectious disease epidemiology involve associations between covariates (e.g., age or vaccination status) and infectiousness or susceptibility. Because disease transmission produces dependent outcomes, these questions are...

How to correctly fit an SIR model to data from an SEIR model? (2024)
Journal Article
KhudaBukhsh, W. R., & Rempała, G. A. (2024). How to correctly fit an SIR model to data from an SEIR model?. Mathematical Biosciences, 375, Article 109265. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.mbs.2024.109265

In epidemiology, realistic disease dynamics often require Susceptible-Exposed-Infected-Recovered (SEIR)-like models because they account for incubation periods before individuals become infectious. However, for the sake of analytica... Read More about How to correctly fit an SIR model to data from an SEIR model?.

On the Trade-off between Fidelity and Latency for the Quantum Link Layer with few Memories and Entanglement Purification (2024)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Elsayed, K. S., KhudaBukhsh, W. R., & Rizk, A. (2024, July). On the Trade-off between Fidelity and Latency for the Quantum Link Layer with few Memories and Entanglement Purification. Presented at 2024 International Conference on Quantum Communications, Networking, and Computing (QCNC), Kanazawa, Japan

Generating high fidelity link-level entanglements is essential for the distribution of end-to-end connectivity across quantum communication networks. The efficiency of entanglement buffering is, however, limited by the short lifetime of the required...

On the Fidelity Distribution of Purified Link-level Entanglements (2024)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Elsayed, K. S., KhudaBukhsh, W. R., & Rizk, A. (2024, June). On the Fidelity Distribution of Purified Link-level Entanglements. Presented at ICC 2024 - IEEE International Conference on Communications, Denver, CO, USA

The first step for entanglement distribution among quantum communication nodes is to generate link-level Ein-stein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) pairs between adjacent communication nodes. EPR pairs may be continuously generated and stored in a few quantum me... Read More about On the Fidelity Distribution of Purified Link-level Entanglements.

Estimating disease transmission in a closed population under repeated testing (2024)
Journal Article
Wascher, M., Schnell, P. M., Khuda Bukhsh, W. R., Quam, M. B. M., Tien, J. H., & Rempała, G. A. (2024). Estimating disease transmission in a closed population under repeated testing. Journal of the Royal Statistical Society: Series C, 73(4), 972-989. https://doi.org/10.1093/jrsssc/qlae021

The article presents a novel statistical framework for COVID-19 transmission monitoring and control, which was developed and deployed at The Ohio State University main campus in Columbus during the Autumn term of 2020. Our approach effectively handle... Read More about Estimating disease transmission in a closed population under repeated testing.

Functional law of large numbers for an epidemic model with random effects (2024)
Book Chapter
Izyumtseva, O., KhudaBukhsh, W. R., & Rempała, G. A. (2024). Functional law of large numbers for an epidemic model with random effects. In A. S. Srinivasa Rao, D. E. Martin, & C. Rao (Eds.), Modeling and Analysis of Longitudinal Data. Elsevier. https://doi.org/10.1016/bs.host.2024.07.002

We consider the standard compartmental Susceptible-Infected-Recovered (SIR) model of infectious disease epidemiology with a random effect on the susceptibility of the individuals. We use a Continuous Time Markov Chain (CTMC) to model the dynamics of... Read More about Functional law of large numbers for an epidemic model with random effects.
