πΈοΈπ Network Agent-Based Models: Unlocking Transmission Dynamics Through Topology
Network Agent-Based Models (ABMs), also referred to as Individual-Based Models (IBMs), are central to modern mathematical epidemiology because they move beyond the simplifying mass-action assumption used in classical compartmental models. In these models, the population is represented as a graph in which individuals are modeled as nodes and their interactions as edges. Disease transmission emerges … Read more
