AI emulation of complex disease models for intervention simulation

Agent-based models (ABMs) are powerful tools for simulating the spread of infectious diseases. ABMs allow the simulation of individual-level human behaviour and can therefore be used to explore the possible implications of highly localised intervention strategies to mitigate the spread of diseases.
