A spatio-temporal individual-based network framework for West Nile virus in the USA: Spreading pattern of West Nile virus

Moon, Sifat A.; Cohnstaedt, Lee W.; McVey, D. Scott; Scoglio, Caterina M. (2019-03-13)

West Nile virus (WNV)—a mosquito-borne arbovirus—entered the USA through New York City in 1999 and spread to the contiguous USA within three years while transitioning from epidemic outbreaks to endemic transmission. The ...
Estimation of swine movement network at farm level in the US from the Census of Agriculture data

Moon, Sifat A.; Ferdousi, Tanvir; Self, Adrian; Scoglio, Caterina M. (2019-04-17)

Swine movement networks among farms/operations are an important source of information to understand and prevent the spread of diseases, nearly nonexistent in the United States. An understanding of the movement networks can ...
Understanding the survival of Zika virus in a vector interconnected sexual contact network

Ferdousi, Tanvir; Cohnstaedt, Lee W.; McVey, D. Scott; Scoglio, Caterina M. (2019-05-10)

The recent outbreaks of the insect-vectored Zika virus have demonstrated its potential to be sexually transmitted, which complicates modeling and our understanding of disease dynamics. Autochthonous outbreaks in the US ...
Performance Comparison for Ballistocardiogram Peak Detection Methods

Suliman, Ahmad; Carlson, Charles; Ade, Carl J.; Warren, Steve; Thompson, David E. (2019)

A number of research groups have proposed methods for ballistocardiogram (BCG) peak detection toward the identification of individual cardiac cycles. However, objective comparisons of these proposed methods are lacking. ...
Understanding the role of sexual transmission in the spread of ZIKA virus using an individual-based interconnected population model

Ferdousi, Tanvir; Cohnstaedt, Lee W.; McVey, D. S.; Scoglio, Caterina M.

Zika virus has affected the world as a long-term threat. Modeling its transmission is important in order to facilitate forecasts and control measures. We propose a novel node-based interconnected population model to simulate ...
