Numerical Integration of the Master Equation in Some Models of Stochastic Epidemiology
The processes by which disease spreads in a population of individuals are inherently stochastic. The master equation has proven to be a useful tool for modeling such processes. Unfortunately, solving the master equation analytically is possible only in limited cases (e.g., when the model is linear),...
