Drinking as an epidemic - a simple mathematical model with recovery and relapse
(2007)
This chapter discusses a simple mathematical model of drinking lapse. Problem drinking is modeled as an acquired state - the result of frequent or intense interactions among individuals in three drinking states within a ...
The role of mobility and sanitary measures on the delay of community transmission of COVID-19 in Costa Rica
(2021-07-21)
The aim of this paper is to infer the effects that change on human mobility had on the transmission dynamics during the first four months of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic in Costa Rica, which could have played a role in delaying ...
Wavelet analysis of dengue incidence and its correlation with weather and vegetation variables in Costa Rica
(2021)
Dengue represents a serious public health problem in tropical and subtropical regions worldwide. The number of dengue cases and its geographical expansion has increased in recent decades, driven mostly after by social and ...
Comparative analysis of dengue versus chikungunya outbreaks in Costa Rica
(2018-06)
For decades, dengue virus has been a cause of major public health concern in Costa Rica, due to its landscape and climatic conditions that favor the circumstances in which the vector, Aedes aegypti, thrives. The emergence ...
The role of SARS-CoV-2 testing on hospitalizations in California
(2021-12-03)
The rapid spread of the new SARS-CoV-2 virus triggered a global health crisis, disproportionately impacting people with pre-existing health conditions and particular demographic and socioeconomic characteristics. One of ...
Desarrollo y análisis del comportamiento humano adaptativo en modelos con relapso no lineal
(2023)
En este proyecto proponemos estudiar las propiedades teóricas y nuevas aplicaciones de un algoritmo de formulación recuente para modelar las decisiones de contacto humanas en modelos epidemiológicos, que es llamado el ...
Adicción a Redes Sociales: Un Modelo Matemático
(2023)
El artículo presenta un modelo de dinámica social para el estudio de la adicción a las redes sociales, basado en los modelos matemáticos SIR (Susceptibles-Infectados-Recuperados). El modelo considera cinco categorías de ...
Mathematical and Statistical models as tools for the control ofmosquito-borne diseases: The experience of Costa Rica
(2021-06-25)
The modeling of infectious diseases provides valuable input in the development of mitigating strategies and implementation of public health interventions. We highlight results and current research conducted in Costa Rica ...
A Multilayer Network Model implementation for COVID-19
(2021)
We present a numerical implementation for a multilayer network to model the transmission of Covid-19 or other diseases with a similar transmission mechanism. The model incorporates different contact types between individuals ...
