Dynamical Epidemic Suppression Using Stochastic Prediction and Control 31 AUG 2005 18 pages
Authors:  Ira B. Schwartz; Lora Billings; Erik M. Bollt; NAVAL RESEARCH LAB WASHINGTON DC PLASMA PHYSICS DIV
The full text of this report is available for sale.We consider the effects of noise on a model of epidemic outbreaks, where the outbreaks appear randomly. Using a constructive transition approach that predicts large outbreaks prior to their occurrence, we derive an adaptive control scheme that prevents large outbreaks from occurring. The theory is applicable to a wide range of stochastic processes with underlying deterministic structure.
