fastbeta (version 0.5.1)

Fast Approximation of Time-Varying Infectious Disease Transmission Rates

Description

A fast method for approximating time-varying infectious disease transmission rates from disease incidence time series and other data, based on a discrete time approximation of an SEIR model, as analyzed in Jagan et al. (2020) .
