Helper function to create the parameters for netsim_run_one_scenario

Helper function to create the parameters for netsim_run_one_scenario

Usage

netsim_scenarios_setup(
  path_to_x,
  param,
  init,
  control,
  scenarios_list,
  n_rep,
  n_cores,
  output_dir,
  libraries
)

Arguments

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.

scenarios_list

A list of scenarios to be run. Produced by the EpiModel::create_scenario_list function

n_rep

The number of replication to be run for each scenario.

n_cores

The number of CPUs on which the simulations will be run.

output_dir

The folder where the simulation files are to be stored.

libraries

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

Value

a list of arguments for netsim_run_one_scenario
