Sparse Resource Allocation for Spreading Processes on Temporal-Switching Networks

no code implementations4 Feb 2023 Vera L. J. Somers, Ian R. Manchester

Spreading processes, e. g. epidemics, wildfires and rumors, are often modeled on static networks.

Multi-Stage Sparse Resource Allocation for Control of Spreading Processes over Networks

no code implementations14 Oct 2021 Vera L. J. Somers, Ian R. Manchester

In this paper we propose a method for sparse dynamic allocation of resources to bound the risk of spreading processes, such as epidemics and wildfires, using convex optimization and dynamic programming techniques.

Minimizing the Risk of Spreading Processes via Surveillance Schedules and Sparse Control

no code implementations13 Jul 2021 Vera L. J. Somers, Ian R. Manchester

Here, risk is considered the risk of an undetected outbreak, i. e. the product of the probability of an outbreak and the impact of that outbreak, and we can bound or minimize the risk by resource allocation and persistent monitoring schedules.

Sparse Resource Allocation for Control of Spreading Processes via Convex Optimization

1 code implementation17 Mar 2020 Vera L. J. Somers, Ian R. Manchester

In this letter we propose a method for sparse allocation of resources to control spreading processes -- such as epidemics and wildfires -- using convex optimization, in particular exponential cone programming.
