Ecosystem¶
To support scalable epidemic modeling and research, the ecosystem is built on four independent repositories that can evolve independently:
| Component | Role |
|---|---|
| epydemix | Epidemic modeling engine in Python with support for model calibration using Approximate Bayesian Computation |
| epymodelingsuite | YAML-configured modeling suite for routine epidemic forecasting with support for interventions like school closures and vaccines. Uses epydemix as engine. |
| epymodelingsuite-cloud | Cloud infrastructure and epycloud CLI for running parallel workloads on Google Cloud with local development support |
| Experiment data repository | YAML experiment configurations, shared surveillance data, and custom functions. Typically one per project (e.g. flu, COVID-19, RSV). |
For detailed descriptions of each component, see Ecosystem Components.
