Micro-MoB (Microsimulation for mosquito-borne pathogens)

R-CMD-check CRAN codecov

What is Micro-MoB?

Micro-MoB was made to simplify the task of model building for mosquito-borne pathogen transmission (MBPT) systems. It stands for “microsimulation for mosquito-borne pathogens”. It is a modular framework to build discrete time MBPT models. It uses R’s S3 object system to define a set of components and interfaces which can be filled by any specific model that implements the interface. These parts, along with certain invariants can be put together to define a full simulation model. Definitions for all these terms can be found in the documentation.

We hope it proves useful. Please visit the website to learn more.

Installation

remotes::install_github('dd-harp/MicroMoB')

Alternatively you can install Micro-MoB directly from CRAN, but be aware that the CRAN version may not be the most recent version of the package:

install.packages('MicroMoB')

Documentation

To start learning more about the software design, the problems it was designed to solve, and how to build new models in Micro-MoB, please read vignette("MicroMoB").

Next, vignette("bloodmeal") describes how the bloodmeal algorithm computes the distribution of bites using each component’s interface, allowing different models to be linked in a consistent framework.

We also have articles describing some well-known models of specific components of MBPT models that are implemented in Micro-MoB:

The article vignette("Advanced") contains information on how to extend Micro-MoB by linking to it from a new package, and how to write new models that interact with the rest of the system. It also contains information on how to use the Plumber web API which is supported for some models in Micro-MoB.
