Run one netsim call with the result of an swfcalib calibration

Usage

netsim_run_swfcalib_scenario(
  calib_object,
  batch_num,
  path_to_x,
  param,
  init,
  control,
  libraries,
  output_dir,
  n_batch,
  n_rep,
  n_cores
)

Arguments

calib_object

a formatted calibration object

batch_num

The batch number, calculated from the number of replications and CPUs required.

path_to_x

Path to a Fitted network model object saved with saveRDS. (See the x argument to the EpiModel::netsim function)

param

Model parameters, as an object of class param.net. Includes transmission probability (inf.prob), act rate (act.rate), recovery rate (rec.rate), and demographic rates for models with vital dynamics. Custom parameters for extended models may also be passed through param.net.

init

Initial conditions, as an object of class init.net. Specifies the initial number of infected nodes (i.num) and, for SIR models, recovered nodes (r.num). For two-group models, the corresponding .g2 parameters are also required.

control

Control settings, as an object of class control.net. Key settings include type (disease model: "SI", "SIR", or "SIS"), nsteps (number of time steps), nsims (number of simulations), tergmLite (lightweight mode for performance), and resimulate.network (required for models with vital dynamics). For extended models, custom module functions are also passed here.

libraries

A character vector containing the name of the libraries required for the model to run. (e.g. EpiModelHIV or EpiModelCOVID)

output_dir

The folder where the simulation files are to be stored.

n_batch

The number of batches to be run ceiling(n_rep / n_cores).

n_rep

The number of replication to be run for each scenario.

n_cores

number of cores to run the processing on
