Description
Summary:This video is an introduction into the use of Compartment Models, which are common models used to study the spread of infectious diseases such as COVID-19. This video will begin by introducing the Susceptible-Infectious-Removed (SIR) model, which forms the base for many epidemic models. Students will learn how to derive this model, to analyze its assumptions, and to see the effects that changes to the assumptions have. We will then explore a range of more sophisticated versions of the basic SIR model to adapt to a range of conditions depending on the type of disease.
