getValidSEIR {stochasticGEM}R Documentation

Fit a fully observed standard SIR general epidemic model

Description

getValidSEIR is used to fit the standard SIR general epidemic model. This is an internal function which can also be called directly by the user.

Usage

getValidSEIR(N,removalTimes,fLatent=NULL)

Arguments

N initial susceptible individuals
removalTimes removal times
fLatent some assumed value of the latency duration

Details

This is a simple and likely to be in-efficient way of getting valid SEIR starting infection and 'end of latency' times. It uses the maximum interremoval time and the assumed latency duration.
