pandemic 0.2.0

Orstein-Uhlenbeck pandemic simulation

Pandemic

An agent model in which commuting, compliance, testing and contagion parameters drive infection in a population. Agents follow OU drift processes on the plane. Viral load is estimated from geohashing. A population of 5,000,000 or so can be used without computational issue, although the default parameters for city generation assume something closer to 40,000.

Usage

The author is not an epidemiologist. There is nothing sacrosanct about the default parameters.

pip install pandemic
>> from pandemic import run
>> run()

There are a few example of modifying the parameters in pandemic.main

Basic elements of the model

Covered in this post with the followup here where possible improvements are also discussed and acknowledgements are made.
