WAIFW matrix

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tool for modeling spread of disease

Ininfectious disease modelling, awho acquires infection from whom (WAIFW) matrix is amatrix that describes the rate of transmission of infection between different groups in a population, such as people of different ages.[1] Used with anSIR model, the entries of the WAIFW matrix can be used to calculate thebasic reproduction number using thenext generation operator approach.[2]

Examples

[edit]

The2×2{\displaystyle 2\times 2} WAIFW matrix for two groups is expressed as[β11β12β21β22]{\displaystyle {\begin{bmatrix}\beta _{11}&\beta _{12}\\\beta _{21}&\beta _{22}\end{bmatrix}}} whereβij{\displaystyle \beta _{ij}} is the transmission coefficient from an infected member of groupi{\displaystyle i} and a susceptible member of groupj{\displaystyle j}. Usually specific mixing patterns are assumed.[citation needed]

Assortative mixing

[edit]

Assortative mixing occurs when those with certain characteristics are more likely to mix with others with whom they share those characteristics. It could be given by[β00β]{\displaystyle {\begin{bmatrix}\beta &0\\0&\beta \end{bmatrix}}}[2] or the general2×2{\displaystyle 2\times 2} WAIFW matrix so long asβ11,β22>β12,β21{\displaystyle \beta _{11},\beta _{22}>\beta _{12},\beta _{21}}. Disassortative mixing is instead whenβ11,β22<β12,β21{\displaystyle \beta _{11},\beta _{22}<\beta _{12},\beta _{21}}.

Homogenous mixing

[edit]

Homogenous mixing, which is also dubbed random mixing, is given by[ββββ]{\displaystyle {\begin{bmatrix}\beta &\beta \\\beta &\beta \end{bmatrix}}}.[3] Transmission is assumed equally likely regardless of group characteristics when a homogenous mixing WAIFW matrix is used. Whereas for heterogenous mixing, transmission rates depend on group characteristics.

Asymmetric mixing

[edit]

It need not be the case thatβij=βji{\displaystyle \beta _{ij}=\beta _{ji}}. Examples of asymmetric WAIFW matrices are[4]

[β1β2β1β2][β1β1β2β2][0β1β20]{\displaystyle {\begin{bmatrix}\beta _{1}&\beta _{2}\\\beta _{1}&\beta _{2}\end{bmatrix}}{\begin{bmatrix}\beta _{1}&\beta _{1}\\\beta _{2}&\beta _{2}\end{bmatrix}}{\begin{bmatrix}0&\beta _{1}\\\beta _{2}&0\end{bmatrix}}}

Social contact hypothesis

[edit]
For the psychological contact hypothesis, seeContact hypothesis.

The social contact hypothesis was proposed byJacco Wallinga [nl], Peter Teunis, and Mirjam Kretzschmar in 2006. The hypothesis states that transmission rates are proportional to contact rates,βijcij{\displaystyle \beta _{ij}\propto c_{ij}} and allows for social contact data to be used in place of WAIFW matrices.[5]
