Bayesian Emulation and Calibration of a Dynamic Epidemic Model for A/H1N1 Influenza
甲型 H1N1 流感动态传播模型的贝叶斯仿真与校准
In this article, we develop a Bayesian framework for parameter estimation of a computationally expensive dynamic epidemic model using time series epidemic data. Specifically, we work with a model for A/H1N1 influenza, which is implemented as a deterministic computer simulator, taking as input the underlying epidemic parameters and calculating the corresponding time series of reported infections. To obtain Bayesian inference for the epidemic parameters, the simulator is…
