In mrc-ide/individual: Framework for Specifying and Simulating Individual Based Models

Multinomial process

Description

Simulates a two-stage process where all individuals in a given source_state sample whether to leave or not with probability rate; those who leave go to one of the destination_states with probabilities contained in the vector destination_probabilities.

Usage

fixed_probability_multinomial_process(
  variable,
  source_state,
  destination_states,
  rate,
  destination_probabilities
)

Arguments

variable	a CategoricalVariable object.
source_state	a string representing the source state.
destination_states	a vector of strings representing the destination states.
rate	probability of individuals in source state to leave.
destination_probabilities	probability vector of destination states.

Value

a function which can be passed as a process to simulation_loop.
