Items corresponding to entire populations or subpopulations. Might be geographically or temporally temporally limited.

population

This repository provides R source code and data to reproduce all results from the associated article. Scripts are included for loading and preparing social contact survey data, fitting smoothing models that account for how contact behavior changes as people age, tuning model parameters, and generating the figures and simulation results presented in the article.

R is a programming language and software environment for statistical computing and graphics, widely used among statisticians and data miners.

Cohort Smoothing

Tools for initial stages of data processing, usually prior to modeling. Includes pre-processing, cleaning, exploratory analysis.

data preparation

Data Preparation

Actions of groups of people in response to outbreaks.

behavior

Behavior

Frequency of interactions between individuals in different settings, at different times...

contact rates

Contact Rates

Descriptors of the behavior of an outbreak

modeling

Modeling

Predicted value of key outbreak parameters, including (but not limited to) fatality rate, R_0, etc.

parameter estimation

Parameter Estimation

Dynamic models are [..] called dynamic because they describe how system properties change over time: a gene’s expression level, the abundance of an endangered species, the mercury level in different organs within an individual, and so on.

dynamic models

Dynamic Models

modeling purpose

Modeling Purpose

The method or type of model used to achieve the purpose.

modeling method

Modeling Method

Theoretical representations that simulate the behavior or activity of systems, processes, or phenomena.

Mathematical Model

a statistical model is an information content entity which is a formalization of relationships between variables in the form of mathematical equations. A statistical model describes how one or more random variables are related to one or more other variables. The model is statistical as the variables are not deterministically but stochastically related.

statistical model

Statistical Model

Software is a plan specification composed of a series of instructions that can be interpreted by or directly executed by a processing unit.

software

Written programs or procedures or rules and associated documentation pertaining to the operation of a computer system and that are stored in read/write memory.
