In this paper, we considered an SIR infectious disease model with two stages, immature and mature, with the time to maturity represented by a constant time delay. We obtain positivity and boundedness of solutions and analyze the equilibria and their stability properties.

In this paper, we considered a SIR infectious disease model with two stages, immature and mature, with the time to maturity represented by a constant time delay. Positivity and boundness of solutions and sufficient conditions of the stability of equilibria are obtained.

In this paper, we propose 4 theoretical models to deal with the wild hornet crisis. First, we use ORIGIN to visualize the distribution of wild wasps. Using the least square method and the grey system GM (1, 1), we establish a theoretical model to predict the propagation of wild wasps over time and analyze the accuracy of the model. However, the accuracy of our model is not very high, which results from the influence of many factors such as climate and human. Secondly, we use convolution neural network to recognize the images. With the increase of network depth, the accuracy rate reaches a bottleneck, which can help predict mistaken classification. We also use the SIR infectious disease model based on the dataset file provided. In the model, we mark the confirmed giant hornet as the infected state I (infected), mark the nonwild wasp as the removed state R (removed, refractory, or recovered), and mark the unclassified and unverified wild wasp as the susceptible state S (susceptible). A model to predict the possibility of misclassification was established by considering the normal death of wild wasp. Thirdly, by analogy with the SIR model, when the epidemic occurs, people pay more attention to the infected person. Thus, the SIR model will lead to the most likely positive sightings. Then, in order to ensure the timeliness and accuracy, the model must be updated once a year by changing or adding parameter according to local conditions. Finally, by establishing an optimized SIR infectious disease model, we added the factor of the Washington state’s control of wild wasps. The analysis shows that the number of infected I (i.e., wild wasps) has tended to zero after 250 days, so it can be proved that the Washington state has eliminated the pest.

In order to solve some complex optimization problems, the SIR-DNA algorithm was constructed based on the DNA-based SIR (susceptible-infectious-recovered) infectious disease model. Since infectious diseases attack a very small part of the individual's genes, the number of variables per treatment is small; thus, the natural dimensionality reduction of the algorithm is achieved. Based on the DNA-SIR infectious disease model, different infections can be distinguished in the pathogenesis of viruses. The mechanisms of disease transmission are described by the SIR model, and these are used to construct operators such as SS, SI, II, IR, RR, and RS, so that individuals can naturally exchange information naturally through disease transmission. The test results show that the algorithm has the characteristics of strong search ability and has a high convergence speed for solving complex optimization problems.

Introduction: Obesity has been recognized as a global epidemic by the WHO, followed by a wealth of empirical evidence supporting its contagiousness. However, the dynamics of the spread of obesity between individuals are rarely studied.  A distinguishing feature of the obesity epidemic is that it is driven by a process of social contagion that cannot be perfectly described by the infectious disease model. There is also social discrimination in the obesity epidemic. Social discrimination against obese people plays quite different roles in two cases: on the one hand, when obesity cannot be eliminated, social discrimination can reduce the number of obese people; on the other hand, when obesity is eradicable, social discrimination can cause it to explode.(1)   Materiał and methods: A literature analysis on obesity epidemic was carried out within the Pubmed, Google scholar and Research Gate platform. The following keywords were used in serach: obesity, epidemy, children, body max index.    Purpose of the work: The aim of the following analysis is to present an obesity as an infectious disease. The steadily increasing percentage of obese people, including children, shows that there is an obesity epidemic. This is the phenomenon of social contagion, which partially explains the concept of homophily, which involves the grouping of people with similar characteristics. Potential explanations are also provided by sharing a living environment with similar access to certain foods and similar opportunities for physical activity, which defines the occurrence of analogous health habits

Since infectious diseases pose a significant risk to human health many countries aim to control their spread. Public health bodies faced with a disease threat must understand the disease’s progression and its transmission process. From this understanding it is possible to evaluate public health interventions intended to decrease impacts on the population. Commonly, contingency planning has been achieved through epidemiological studies and the use of relatively simple models. However, computational methods increasingly allow more complex, and potentially more realistic, simulations of various scenarios of the control of the spread of disease. However, understanding computational results from more sophisticated models can pose considerable challenges. A case study of a system combining a complex infectious disease model with interactive visualization and computational steering tools shows some of the opportunities this approach offers to infectious disease control.
