Epidemiological modeling with a population density map-based cellular automata simulation system

作者:

Highlights:

• We proposed a new cellular automata framework for epidemic simulation.

• We analyze the dynamic of the disease for real geographical and demographic data.

• We introduce parameters which reflects the dynamics of the population.

• The results show the influence of individuals mobility on the disease spreading.

• We use SEIR-IBM model for the simulation.
