Online, semi-parametric estimation of optimal treatment allocations for the control of emerging epidemics
Published on Jul 28, 20151855 Views
A key component in controlling the spread of an epidemic is deciding where, when, and to whom to apply an intervention. Here, we conceptualize the epidemic as spreading across nodes in an network. A t
