Estimation And Validation of An Outbreak Simulator
Content Type: Abstract
In previous work, we described a non-disease-specific outbreak simulator for the evaluation of outbreak detection algorithms. This Template-Driven Simulator generates disease patterns using user-defined template functions.… read more… algorithms. To demonstrate template estimation, we employ BARD, a disease-specific outbreak model for outdoor aerosol … anthrax cases. The home census block group and time of visit to an emergency department are available for each … template using outbreak data generated from BARD, a sophisticated state-of-the-art anthrax outbreak …
