Abstract

Abstract With the high incidence of the dengue epidemic in developing countries, it is crucial to understand its dynamics from a holistic perspective. This paper analyzes different types of antecedents from a cybernetics perspective using a structural modelling approach. The novelty of this paper is twofold. First, it analyzes antecedents that may be social, institutional, environmental, or economic in nature. Since this type of study has not been done in the context of the dengue epidemic modelling, this paper offers a fresh perspective on this topic. Second, the paper pioneers the use of fuzzy multiple attribute decision making (F-MADM) approaches for the modelling of epidemic antecedents. As such, the paper has provided an avenue for the cross-fertilization of knowledge between scholars working in soft computing and epidemiological modelling domains.

使用模糊多属性决策方法（F-MADM）建模流行病前因之间的相互依赖关系

摘要鉴于登革热疫情在发展中国家高发，从整体角度了解其动态至关重要。本文采用结构建模方法，从控制论的角度分析了不同类型的前因。这篇论文的新颖性是双重的。首先，它分析了可能是社会、制度、环境或经济性质的前因。由于这类研究尚未在登革热疫情建模的背景下进行，本文为这一主题提供了一个新的视角。其次，本文率先使用模糊多属性决策（F-MADM）方法对流行病前因进行建模。因此，该论文为软计算和流行病学建模领域的学者之间的知识交叉交流提供了一条途径。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
