Approximate Aggregation Methods in Discrete Time Stochastic Population Models

L. Sanz, J. A. Alonso (2010)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

Similarity:

Approximate aggregation techniques consist of introducing certain approximations that allow one to reduce a complex system involving many coupled variables obtaining a simpler ʽʽaggregated systemʼʼ governed by a few variables. Moreover, they give results that allow one to extract information about the complex original system in terms of the behavior of the reduced one. Often, the feature that allows one to carry out such a reduction is the ...

Scaling of Stochasticity in Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever Epidemics

M. Aguiar, B.W. Kooi, J. Martins, N. Stollenwerk (2012)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

Similarity:

In this paper we analyze the stochastic version of a minimalistic multi-strain model, which captures essential differences between primary and secondary infections in dengue fever epidemiology, and investigate the interplay between stochasticity, seasonality and import. The introduction of stochasticity is needed to explain the fluctuations observed in some of the available data sets, revealing a scenario where noise and complex deterministic...
