Debian Med Epidemiology packages

This package implements generalized SEIRS infectious disease dynamics models with extensions that model the effect of factors including population structure, social distancing, testing, contact tracing, and quarantining detected cases.

Notably, this package includes stochastic implementations of these models on dynamic networks.

PyTorch is a Python package that provides two high-level features:

(1) Tensor computation (like NumPy) with strong GPU acceleration (2) Deep neural networks built on a tape-based autograd system

You can reuse your favorite Python packages such as NumPy, SciPy and Cython to extend PyTorch when needed.

This is the CPU-only version of PyTorch (Python interface).

TreeTime provides routines for ancestral sequence reconstruction and the maximum likelihoo inference of molecular-clock phylogenies, i.e., a tree where all branches are scaled such that the locations of terminal nodes correspond to their sampling times and internal nodes are placed at the most likely time of divergence.

TreeTime aims at striking a compromise between sophisticated probabilistic models of evolution and fast heuristics. It implements GTR models of ancestral inference and branch length optimization, but takes the tree topology as given. To optimize the likelihood of time-scaled phylogenies, treetime uses an iterative approach that first infers ancestral sequences given the branch length of the tree, then optimizes the positions of unconstraine d nodes on the time axis, and then repeats this cycle. The only topology optimization are (optional) resolution of polytomies in a way that is most (approximately) consistent with the sampling time constraints on the tree. The package is designed to be used as a stand-alone tool or as a library used in larger phylogenetic analysis workflows.

Features

• ancestral sequence reconstruction (marginal and joint maximum likelihood)
• molecular clock tree inference (marginal and joint maximum likelihood)
• inference of GTR models
• rerooting to obtain best root-to-tip regression
• auto-correlated relaxed molecular clock (with normal prior)

This package provides the Python 3 module.

This package provides a GNU R wrapper around the 'COVID Tracking Project API' https://covidtracking.com/api/ providing data on cases of COVID-19 in the US.

DiagnosisMed is a GNU R package to analyze the accuracy of data from diagnostic tests evaluating health conditions. It was designed to be used by health professionals. This package helps estimating sensitivity and specificity from categorical and continuous test results including some evaluations of indeterminate results, or compare different categorical tests, and estimate reasonable cut-offs of tests and display it in a way commonly used by health professionals. No graphical interface is available yet.

Functions for demographic and epidemiological analysis in the Lexis diagram, i.e. register and cohort follow-up data, including interval censored data and representation of multistate data. Also some useful functions for tabulation and plotting. Contains some epidemiological datasets.

The Epi package is mainly focused on "classical" chronic disease epidemiology. The package has grown out of the course Statistical Practice in Epidemiology using R (see http://www.pubhealth.ku.dk/~bxc/SPE).

There is A short introduction to R for Epidemiology available at http://staff.pubhealth.ku.dk/%7Ebxc/Epi/R-intro.pdf Beware that the pages 38-120 of this is merely the manual pages for the Epi package.

Epi is not the only R-package for epidemiological analysis, a package with more affinity to infectious disease epidemiology is the epitools package which is also evailable in Debian.

Epi is used in the Department of Biostatistics of the University of Copenhagen.

Elementary Epidemiological Functions for a Graduate Epidemiology / Biostatistics Course.

This package contains elementary tools for analysis of common epidemiological problems, ranging from sample size estimation, through 2x2 contingency table analysis and basic measures of agreement (kappa, sensitivity/specificity). Appropriate print and summary statements are also written to facilitate interpretation wherever possible. This package is a work in progress, so any comments or suggestions would be appreciated. Source code is commented throughout to facilitate modification. The target audience includes graduate students in various epi/biostatistics courses.

Epibasix was developed in Canada.

Tools to quantify transmissibility throughout an epidemic from the analysis of time series of incidence as described in Cori et al. (2013) and Wallinga and Teunis (2004) .

A package for analysing epidemiological data. Contains functions for directly and indirectly adjusting measures of disease frequency, quantifying measures of association on the basis of single or multiple strata of count data presented in a contingency table, and computing confidence intervals around incidence risk and incidence rate estimates. Miscellaneous functions for use in meta-analysis, diagnostic test interpretation, and sample size calculations.

GNU R Tools for public health epidemiologists and data analysts. Epitools provides numerical tools and programming solutions that have been used and tested in real-world epidemiologic applications.

Many practical problems in the analysis of public health data require programming or special software, and investigators in different locations may duplicate programming efforts. Often, simple analyses, such as the construction of confidence intervals, are not calculated and thereby complicate appropriate statistical inferences for small geographic areas. There are many examples of simple and useful numerical tools that would enhance the work of epidemiologists at local health departments and yet are not readily available for the problem in front of them. The availability of these tools will encourage wider use of appropriate methods and promote evidence-based public health practices.

Provides functions and classes to compute, handle and visualise incidence from dated events for a defined time interval. Dates can be provided in various standard formats. The class 'incidence' is used to store computed incidence and can be easily manipulated, subsetted, and plotted. In addition, log-linear models can be fitted to 'incidence' objects using 'fit'. This package is part of the RECON (http://www.repidemicsconsortium.org/) toolkit for outbreak analysis.

In self-reported or anonymised data the user often encounters heaped data, i.e. data which are rounded (to a possibly different degree of coarseness). While this is mostly a minor problem in parametric density estimation the bias can be very large for non-parametric methods such as kernel density estimation. This package implements a partly Bayesian algorithm treating the true unknown values as additional parameters and estimates the rounding parameters to give a corrected kernel density estimate. It supports various standard bandwidth selection methods. Varying rounding probabilities (depending on the true value) and asymmetric rounding is estimable as well: Gross, M. and Rendtel, U. (2016) (). Additionally, bivariate non- parametric density estimation for rounded data, Gross, M. et al. (2016) (), as well as data aggregated on areas is supported.

An R implementation of the LexRank algorithm implementing stochastic graph-based method for computing relative importance of textual units for Natural Language Processing. The technique on the problem of Text Summarization (TS) is tested. Extractive TS relies on the concept of sentence salience to identify the most important sentences in a document or set of documents. Salience is typically defined in terms of the presence of particular important words or in terms of similarity to a centroid pseudo-sentence.

The prevalence package provides Frequentist and Bayesian methods for prevalence assessment studies. IMPORTANT: the truePrev functions in the prevalence package call on JAGS (Just Another Gibbs Sampler), which therefore has to be available on the user's system. JAGS can be downloaded from http://mcmc-jags.sourceforge.net/.

Antibody levels measured in a cross-sectional population samples can be translated into an estimate of the frequency with which seroconversions (new infections) occur. In order to interpret the measured cross-sectional antibody levels, parameters which predict the decay of antibodies must be known. In previously published reports (Simonsen et al. 2009 and Versteegh et al. 2005), this information has been obtained from longitudinal studies on subjects who had culture-confirmed Salmonella and Campylobacter infections. A Bayesian back-calculation model was used to convert antibody measurements into an estimation of time since infection. This can be used to estimate the seroincidence in the cross-sectional sample of population. For both the longitudinal and cross-sectional measurements of antibody concentrations, the indirect ELISA was used. The models are only valid for persons over 18 years. The seroincidence estimates are suitable for monitoring the effect of control programmes when representative cross-sectional serum samples are available for analyses. These provide more accurate information on the infection pressure in humans across countries.

Support for simple features, a standardized way to encode spatial vector data. Binds to 'GDAL' for reading and writing data, to 'GEOS' for geometrical operations, and to 'PROJ' for projection conversions and datum transformations.

Collection of plotting and table output functions for data visualization. Results of various statistical analyses (that are commonly used in social sciences) can be visualized using this package, including simple and cross tabulated frequencies, histograms, box plots, (generalized) linear models, mixed effects models, principal component analysis and correlation matrices, cluster analyses, scatter plots, stacked scales, effects plots of regression models (including interaction terms) and much more. This package supports labelled data.

Statistical methods for the modeling and monitoring of time series of counts, proportions and categorical data, as well as for the modeling of continuous-time point processes of epidemic phenomena.

The monitoring methods focus on aberration detection in count data time series from public health surveillance of communicable diseases, but applications could just as well originate from environmetrics, reliability engineering, econometrics, or social sciences. The package implements many typical outbreak detection procedures such as the (improved) Farrington algorithm, or the negative binomial GLR-CUSUM method of Höhle and Paul (2008) . A novel CUSUM approach combining logistic and multinomial logistic modeling is also included. The package contains several real-world data sets, the ability to simulate outbreak data, and to visualize the results of the monitoring in a temporal, spatial or spatio-temporal fashion. A recent overview of the available monitoring procedures is given by Salmon et al. (2016) .

For the retrospective analysis of epidemic spread, the package provides three endemic-epidemic modeling frameworks with tools for visualization, likelihood inference, and simulation. hhh4() estimates models for (multivariate) count time series following Paul and Held (2011) and Meyer and Held (2014) . twinSIR() models the susceptible-infectious-recovered (SIR) event history of a fixed population, e.g, epidemics across farms or networks, as a multivariate point process as proposed by Höhle (2009) . twinstim() estimates self-exciting point process models for a spatio-temporal point pattern of infective events, e.g., time-stamped geo-referenced surveillance data, as proposed by Meyer et al. (2012) . A recent overview of the implemented space-time modeling frameworks for epidemic phenomena is given by Meyer et al. (2017) .

This library provides a simple interface to simulate mathematical epidemic models in Python3. It is a precondition for the program epigrass.

This GNU R package supports estimation, testing and regression modeling of subdistribution functions in competing risks, as described in Gray (1988), A class of K-sample tests for comparing the cumulative incidence of a competing risk.

Functions for fitting general continuous-time Markov and hidden Markov multi-state models to longitudinal data. Both Markov transition rates and the hidden Markov output process can be modelled in terms of covariates. A variety of observation schemes are supported, including processes observed at arbitrary times, completely-observed processes, and censored states.

Penn Medicine - COVID-19 Hospital Impact Model for Epidemics

This tool was developed by the Predictive Healthcare team at Penn Medicine. For questions and comments please see our contact page. Code can be found on Github. Join our Slack channel if you would like to get involved!

The estimated number of currently infected individuals is 533. The 91 confirmed cases in the region imply a 17% rate of detection. This is based on current inputs for Hospitalizations (4), Hospitalization rate (5%), Region size (4119405), and Hospital market share (15%).

An initial doubling time of 6 days and a recovery time of 14.0 days imply an R_0 of 2.71.

Mitigation: A 0% reduction in social contact after the onset of the outbreak reduces the doubling time to 6.0 days, implying an effective R_t of 2.712.712.71.

EpiFire is a C++ applications programming interface (API) that does two things:

• Model the spread of an infectious disease in a population
• Generate and manipulate networks of nodes and edges

While the network code can be used independently from the epidemiological code and vice versa—they are conceptually and functionally distinct—from the beginning, the libraries were developed to be compatible with each other. What EpiFire excels at is simulating the stochastic spread of disease on contact networks.

NetEpi, which is short for "Network-enabled Epidemiology", is a collaborative project to create a suite of free, open source software tools for epidemiology and public health practice. Anyone with an interest in population health epidemiology or public health informatics is encouraged to examine the prototype tools and to consider contributing to their further development. Contributions which involve formal and/or informal testing of the tools in a wide range of circumstances and environments are particularly welcome, as is assistance with design, programming and documentation tasks.

This is a tool for conducting epidemiological analysis of data sets, both large and small, either through a Web browser interface, or via a programmatic interface. In many respects it is similar to the analysis facilities included in the Epi Info suite, except that NetEpi Analysis is designed to be installed on servers and accessed remotely via Web browsers, although it can also be installed on individual desktop or laptop computers.

The software was developed by New South Wales Department of Health.

NetEpi Case Manager is a tool for securely collecting structured information about cases and contacts of communicable (and other) diseases through Web browsers and the Internet. New data collection forms can be designed and deployed quickly by epidemiologists, using a "point-and-click" interface, without the need for knowledge of or training in any programming language. Data can then be collected from users of the system, who can be located anywhere in the world, into a centralised database. All that is needed by users of the system is a relatively recent Web browser and an Internet connection ("NetEpi" is short for "Network-enabled Epidemiology"). In many respects, NetEpi Case Manager is like a Web-enabled version of the data entry facilities in the very popular Epi Info suite of programmes published by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and in the Danish EpiData project, which is available for several languages. The software was developed by the Centre for Epidemiology and Research of the New South Wales Department of Health, with contributions from Population Health Division of the Australian Government Department of Health and Ageing.
