Time varying Markov process with partially observed aggregate data: An application to coronavirus
部分观测汇总数据下的时变 Markov 过程:冠状病毒应用
A major difficulty in the analysis of Covid-19 transmission is that many infected individuals are asymptomatic. For this reason, the total counts of infected individuals and of recovered immunized individuals are unknown, especially during the early phase of the epidemic. In this paper, we consider a parametric time varying Markov process of Coronavirus transmission and show how to estimate the model parameters and approximate the unobserved counts from daily data on…
