Module: SeedSelection

The SeedSelection module chooses which nodes in the ContactNetwork object to be initially infected. See the source code to see what is defined by the abstract class.

List of Implementations

• SeedSelection_EdgeWeighted
  • The probability at which a node is chosen is weighted by its degree
  • Requirements:
    • None
  • Config Parameters:
    • num_seeds: The desired number of seed nodes
• SeedSelection_PANGEA
  • Wrapper for PANGEA.HIV.sim
  • Requirements:
    • R
    • PANGEA.HIV.sim
    • Must use ContactNetwork_PANGEA module
    • Must use ContactNetworkGenerator_PANGEA module
    • Must use EndCriteria_Instant module
    • Must use NodeEvolution_PANGEA module

  • Config Parameters
    • Rscript_path: The path to your Rscript executable (or simply "Rscript" if it is in your PATH variable)
    • All pangea_ parameters, which correspond to PANGEA.HIV.sim parameters (see entry in FAVITES_ModuleList.json for complete list, and see PANGEA.HIV.sim help for details)
      • Use "" for default
• SeedSelection_Random
  • Seed nodes are selected from the set of all nodes in the contact network with equal probability
  • Requirements:
    • None
  • Config Parameters:
    • num_seeds: The desired number of seed nodes
• SeedSelection_TransmissionFile
  • Transmission network is read from file
  • Requirements:
    • Must use EndCriteria_TransmissionFile module
    • Must use TransmissionNodeSample_TransmissionFile module
    • Must use TransmissionTimeSample_TransmissionFile module
  • Config Parameters:
    • transmission_network_file: The desired transmission network, represented in the FAVITES Transmission Network File Format
    • seed_file: The desired seed nodes, represented in the FAVITES Seed File Format
