A new susceptible-infected-susceptible model with feedback mechanism is proposed. The dynamic behavior of the epidemic model with feedback mechanism in scale-free networks is researched by theoretical analysis and computer simulation. The results show that feedback mechanism can reduce the stable infective ratio of system; however, it can not influence the epidemic threshold of system. The results can help us to understand rightly epidemic spreading process in reality networks and guide people to design effective epidemic preventive and controlling measures when epidemic outbreaks.

AbstractIt is well known that the feedback mechanism or the individual’s intuitive response to the epidemic can have a vital effect on the disease’s spreading. In this paper, we investigate the bifurcation behavior and the optimal feedback mechanism for an SIS epidemic model on heterogeneous networks. Firstly, we present the bifurcation analysis when the basic reproduction number is equal to unity. The direction of bifurcation is also determined. Secondly, different from the constant coefficient in the existing literature, we incorporate a time-varying feedback mechanism coefficient. This is more reasonable since the initiative response of people is constantly changing during different process of disease prevalence. We analyze the optimal feedback mechanism for the SIS epidemic network model by applying the optimal control theory. The existence and uniqueness of the optimal control strategy are obtained. Finally, a numerical example is presented to verify the efficiency of the obtained results. How the topology of the network affects the optimal feedback mechanism is also discussed.

A modified spreading dynamic model with feedback-mechanism based on scale-free networks is presented in this study. Using the mean field theory, the spreading dynamics of the model is analyzed. The spreading threshold and equilibriums are derived. The relationship between the spreading threshold, the epidemic steady-state and the feedback-mechanism is analyzed in detail. Theoretical results indicate the feedback-mechanism can increase the spreading threshold, resulting in effectively controlling the epidemic spreading.

We study the traffic-driven epidemic spreading on scale-free networks with tunable degree distribution. The heterogeneity of networks is controlled by the exponent [Formula: see text] of power-law degree distribution. It is found that the epidemic threshold is minimized at about [Formula: see text]. Moreover, we find that nodes with larger algorithmic betweenness are more likely to be infected. We expect our work to provide new insights in to the effect of network structures on traffic-driven epidemic spreading.

Based on the stress responses of individuals, the susceptible-infected-susceptible epidemic model was improved on the small-world networks and BA scale-free networks and the simulations were implemented and analyzed. Results indicate that the behaviors of individual’s stress responses could induce the epidemic spreading resistance and adaptation at the network level. This phenomenon showed that networks were learning how to adapt to the disease and the evolution process could improve their immunization to future infectious diseases and would effectively prevent the spreading of infectious diseases.

<abstract><p>An SIS epidemic model with time delay and stochastic perturbation on scale-free networks is established in this paper. And we derive sufficient conditions guaranteeing extinction and persistence of epidemics, respectively, which are related to the basic reproduction number $ R_0 $ of the corresponding deterministic model. When $ R_0 &lt; 1 $, almost surely exponential extinction and $ p $-th moment exponential extinction of epidemics are proved by Razumikhin-Mao Theorem. Whereas, when $ R_0 &gt; 1 $, the system is persistent in the mean under sufficiently weak noise intensities, which indicates that the disease will prevail. Finally, the main results are demonstrated by numerical simulations.</p></abstract>

Taking into account the heterogeneity of the underlying networks, an epidemic model with feedback-mechanism, time delay and migrations of individuals on scale-free networks is presented. First, the epidemic dynamics is analyzed via the mean field theory. The spreading critical threshold and equilibriums are derived. The existence of endemic equilibrium is determined by the spreading threshold. Then, the influences of feedback-mechanism, time delay, migrations of individuals and the heterogeneity of the scale-free networks on the spreading threshold and the epidemic steady-state are studied in detail. Numerical simulations are presented to illustrate the results with the theoretical analysis.
