Package 'epiworldR'

epiworldR

Description

A flexible framework for Agent-Based Models (ABM), the 'epiworldR' package provides methods for prototyping disease outbreaks and transmission models using a 'C++' backend, making it very fast. It supports multiple epidemiological models, including the Susceptible-Infected-Susceptible (SIS), Susceptible-Infected-Removed (SIR), Susceptible-Exposed-Infected-Removed (SEIR), and others, involving arbitrary mitigation policies and multiple-disease models. Users can specify infectiousness/susceptibility rates as a function of agents' features, providing great complexity for the model dynamics. Furthermore, 'epiworldR' is ideal for simulation studies featuring large populations.

globalevent_tool_logit(
  tool,
  vars,
  coefs,

  day = -99
)

globalevent_fun(fun, name = deparse(substitute(fun)), day = -99)

add_globalevent(model, event, action = NULL)

rm_globalevent(model, event)

Arguments

tool	An object of class tool.
prob	Numeric scalar. A probability between 0 and 1.
name	Character scalar. The name of the action.
day	Integer. The day (step) at which the action is executed (see details).
vars	Integer vector. The position of the variables in the model.
coefs	Numeric vector. The coefficients of the logistic regression.
param	Character scalar. The name of the parameter to be set.
value	Numeric scalar. The value of the parameter.
fun	Function. The function to be executed.
model	An object of class epiworld_model.
event	The event to be added or removed. If it is to add, then it should be an object of class epiworld_globalevent. If it is to remove, it should be an integer with the position of the event in the model (starting from zero).
action	(Deprecated) use event instead.

Details

The function globalevent_tool_logit allows to specify a logistic regression model for the probability of using a tool. The model is specified by the vector of coefficients coefs and the vector of variables vars. vars is an integer vector indicating the position of the variables in the model.

The function globalevent_set_param allows to set a parameter of the model. The parameter is specified by its name param and the value by value.

The function globalevent_fun allows to specify a function to be executed at a given day. The function object must receive an object of class epiworld_model as only argument.

The function add_globalevent adds a global action to a model. The model checks for actions to be executed at each time step. If the added action matches the current time step, the action is executed. When day is negative, the action is executed at each time step. When day is positive, the action is executed at the specified time step.

Value

• The globalevent_set_params function returns an object of class epiworld_globalevent_set_param and epiworld_globalevent.

• globalevent_tool returns an object of class epiworld_globalevent_tool and epiworld_globalevent.

• globalevent_tool_logit returns an object of class epiworld_globalevent_tool_logit and epiworld_globalevent.

Network Diffusion Model

Description

The network diffusion model is a simple model that assumes that the probability of adoption of a behavior is proportional to the number of adopters in the network.

Usage

ModelDiffNet(
  name,
  prevalence,
  prob_adopt,
  normalize_exposure = TRUE,
  data = matrix(nrow = 0, ncol = 0),
  data_cols = 1L:ncol(data),
  params = vector("double")
)

## S3 method for class 'epiworld_diffnet'
plot(x, main = get_name(x), ...)

Arguments

name	Name of the model.
prevalence	Prevalence of the disease.
prob_adopt	Probability of adoption.
normalize_exposure	Normalize exposure.
data	Data.
data_cols	Data columns.
params	Parameters.
x	Object of class epiworld_diffnet.
main	Title of the plot
...	Passed to graphics::plot.

Details

Different from common epidemiological models, the network diffusion model assumes that the probability of adoption of a behavior is proportional to the number of adopters in the network. The model is defined by the following equations:

$P(adopt) = \mbox{Logit}^{-1}(prob\_adopt + params * data + exposure)$

Where exposure is the number of adopters in the agent's network.

Another important difference is that the transmission network is not necesary useful since adoption in this model is not from a particular neighbor.

Value

An object of class epiworld_diffnet and epiworld_model.

Details

The virus() function can be used to initialize a virus. Virus features can then be modified using the functions ⁠set_prob_*⁠.

The function virus_fun_logit() creates a "virus function" that can be evaluated for transmission, recovery, and death. As the name sugests, it computes those probabilities using a logit function (see examples).

The name of the epiworld_virus object can be manipulated with the functions set_name_virus() and get_name_virus().

In the case of set_prob_infecting_ptr, set_prob_recovery_ptr, and set_prob_death_ptr, the corresponding parameters is passed as a pointer to the virus. The implication of using pointers is that the values will be read directly from the model object, so changes will be reflected.

The distribute_virus_randomly function is a factory function used to randomly distribute the virus in the model. The prevalence can be set as a proportion or as a number of agents. The resulting function can then be passed to set_distribution_virus.

Value

• The set_name_virus function does not return a value, but merely assigns a name to the virus of choice.

• The get_name_virus function returns the name of the virus of class epiworld_virus.

• The add_virus function does not return a value, instead it adds the virus of choice to the model object of class epiworld_model.

• The virus_set_state function does not return a value but assigns epidemiological properties to the specified virus of class epiworld_virus.

• The rm_virus function does not return a value, but instead removes a specified virus from the model of class epiworld_model.

• The set_prob_infecting function does not return a value, but instead assigns a probability to infection for the specified virus of class epiworld_virus.

• The set_prob_recovery function does not return a value, but instead assigns a probability to recovery for the specified virus of class epiworld_virus.

• The set_prob_death function does not return a value, but instead assigns a probability to death for the specified virus of class epiworld_virus.

• The set_incubation function does not return a value, but instead assigns an incubation period to the specified virus of class epiworld_virus.

• The distribute_virus_randomly function returns a function that can be used to distribute the virus in the model.
