A Study on Prediction and Spreading of Epidemic Diseases

Abstract

Human population is being affected immensely day by day by different epidemic diseases. The West Nile virus outbreaks are epidemic in mainly suburban and urban areas. This paper is a study on various models that can be used to predict the occurrence of an epidemic disease caused by the West Nile Virus (WNV). It is also possible to separate an individual into different compartments like Susceptible and Infectious depending upon the state of infection spread. This paper also discusses different compartmental models that can be used to determine spreading of the West Nile virus. This can be an aid to the health care systems to prevent such deadly viruses to an extent.
