Title: Modeling and Quantifying the Dispersal of Mosquitoes

Abstract: A major public health burden is imposed by vector-borne diseases transmitted by mosquitoes. Measures to mitigate this burden include controlling mosquito populations, and understanding their local spatial movement is central to such efforts. Using a diffusive agent-based model, we design a computational method, called Recapture of Diffusive Agents & Particle Swarm Optimization (RDA-PSO), that robustly estimates the diffusion...
