eqbm_snails_fit_mod: Solve for equilibrium susceptible snail and total snail...

In cmhoove14/DDNTD: Density Dependence in Neglected Tropical Diseases

Description

Takes as input the worm burden in each age and treatment group and vector of model parameters and uses 'rootSolve::multiroot' to determine the total, N, and susceptible, S, snail population sizes. Returns these values along with resulting estimates of exposed, E, and infected, I, snail populations. These values returned as ratios, i.e. S/N; E/N; I/N

Usage

eqbm_snails_fit_mod(x, pars, W_TC, W_UC, W_TA, W_UA)

Arguments

x	input estimates of eqbm population sizes, N and S (IN THAT ORDER) for initial estimates
pars	parameter set
W_TC	mean worm burden in treated SAC group
W_UC	mean worm burden in untreated SAC group
W_TA	mean worm burden in treated adult group
W_UA	mean worm burden in untreated adult group

Value

vector of estimates of total equlibirum snail population size and proportion susceptible, exposed, and infected
