Statistical Inference in a Stochastic Epidemic SEIR Model with Control Intervention: Ebola as a Case Study

Statistical Inference in a Stochastic Epidemic SEIR Model with Control Intervention: Ebola as a Case Study

A stochastic discrete-time susceptible-exposed-infectious-recovered (SEIR) model for infectious diseases is developed with the aim of estimating parameters from daily incidence and mortality time series for an outbreak of Ebola in the Democratic Republic of Congo in 1995. The incidence time series exhibit many low integers as well as zero counts …
