ZOTMPo–INAR(1) Process: Entropy and Modeling of Epidemiological Count Time Series Data

Manik Awale, Shrirang Pund, Hassan S. Bakouch, Aishwarya Ghodake et al. • Entropy (2026)

In this article, we propose a first-order integer-valued autoregressive (INAR(1)) model based on binomial thinning, in which the innovation sequence follows a zero–one–two-modified Poisson (ZOTMPo) distribution. The proposed model accommoda...

Cost effective reproduction number based strategies for reducing deaths from COVID-19

Christopher Thron, Vianney Mbazumutima, Luis V. Tamayo, Léonard Todjihounde • Journal of Mathematics in Industry (2021)

Abstract In epidemiology, the effective reproduction number R e $R_{e}$ is used to characterize the growth rate of an epidemic outbreak. If R e > 1 $R_{e} >1$ , the epidemic worsens, and if R e < 1 $R_{e}< 1$ , then it subsides and eventual...
