It offers an easy - to - follow implementation and analysis of mathematical epidemiology. It focuses on recent case studies in order to explore various conceptual mathematical and statistical issues. The dynamics of infectious diseases shows a wide diversity of pattern. Some have locally persistent chains - of - transmission others persist spatially in consumer - resource metapopulations. Some infections are prevalent among the young some among the old and some are age - invariant. Temporally some diseases have little variation in prevalence some have predictable seasonal shifts and others exhibit violent epidemics that may be regular or irregular in their timing. Models and 'models - with - data have proved invaluable for understanding and predicting this diversity and thence help improve intervention and control. Using mathematical models to understand infectious disease dynamics has a very rich history in epidemiology. The field has seen broad expansions of theories as well as a surge in real - life application of mathematics to dynamics and control of infectious disease. The chapters of Epidemics: Models and Data Using R have been organized as follows: chapters 1 - 10 is a mix and match of models data and statistics pertaining to local disease dynamics; chapters 11 - 13 pertains to spatial and spatiotemporal dynamics; chapter 14 highlights similarities between the dynamics of infectious disease and parasitoid - host dynamics; Finally chapters 15 and 16 overview additional statistical methodology useful in studies of infectious disease dynamics. This book can be used as a guide for working with data models and 'models - and - data to understand epidemics and infectious disease dynamics in space and time. All the code and data sets are distributed in the epimdr 2 R package to facilitate the hands - on philosophy of the text.\u003cbr\u003e\nTitle: Epidemics Models And Data Using R\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor(s): Bj rnstad Ottar N.\u003cbr\u003e\nPublisher: Springer International Publishing Ag\u003cbr\u003e\nBarcode: 9783031120558\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 387 Pages, 75 Illustrations, Color; 80 Illustrations, Black And White; Xv, 387 P. 155 Illus., 75 Ill\u003cbr\u003e\nPublication Date: 12\/14\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\nSeries: Use R!\u003cbr\u003e\nCategory: Probability \u0026amp; Statistics","brand":"Bj Rnstad Ottar N.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49627750170929,"sku":"IN-G-9783031120558","price":83.89,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0644\/6759\/9594\/files\/9783031120558.jpg?v=1724970404","url":"https:\/\/bookdelivered.com\/products\/9783031120558-epidemics-models-and-data-using-r","provider":"Book Delivered","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
