Bayesian Persuasion for Containing SIS Epidemic with Asymptomatic Infection

no code implementations • 7 Dec 2023 • Ashish R. Hota, Abhisek Satapathi, Urmee Maitra

We investigate the strategic behavior of a large population of agents who decide whether to adopt a costly partially effective protection or remain unprotected against the susceptible-infected-susceptible epidemic.

Coupled Evolutionary Behavioral and Disease Dynamics under Reinfection Risk

We study the interplay between epidemic dynamics and human decision making for epidemics that involve reinfection risk; in particular, the susceptible-infected-susceptible (SIS) and the susceptible-infected-recovered-infected (SIRI) epidemic models.

Epidemic Propagation under Evolutionary Behavioral Dynamics: Stability and Bifurcation Analysis

no code implementations • 19 Mar 2022 • Abhisek Satapathi, Narendra Kumar Dhar, Ashish R. Hota, Vaibhav Srivastava

We consider the class of SIS epidemic models in which a large population of individuals chooses whether to adopt protection or to remain unprotected as the epidemic evolves.
