In noamross/spore: Equation-free modeling of spore-driven disease dynamics

Outline for Optimal Control of Fungal Disease Paper

Introduction

• Control of diseases as an economic problem
• Review of Sudden Oak Death, Chytrid, WND as load-driven diseases
• Review of multiple-infection literature
• Refer to @Ross2015 for outline of disease-interaction issues
• Individual-based models for stochastic problems and extinction scenarios, small populations (See @Briggs2010)

Methods

• Describe IBM model of disease
• Describe mix of available controls, how controls are implemented in the model
• Describe

Analyses

• Path under single control
• Path under double controls

Discussion

• Best approach to dealing with stochastic epidemic
  • Limit control to later period when disease is controllable?

Paper 2: Fitting multiple infections

Explain Conway-Maxwell-Poisson Distribution

Introduce package

Fit to @Meentemeyer2004 data on # of infected leaves or number of cankers per plant.
