  19. Outline • Motivation • Part 1: Understanding Epidemics (Theory) • Part 2: Policy and Action (Algorithms) • Part 3: Learning Models (Empirical Studies) • Conclusion B. A. Prakash; C. Faloutsos

  20. Part 1: Theory • Q1: What is the epidemic threshold? • Q2: How do viruses compete? B. A. Prakash; C. Faloutsos

  21. A fundamental question Strong Virus Epidemic? B. A. Prakash; C. Faloutsos

  22. example (static graph) Weak Virus Epidemic? B. A. Prakash; C. Faloutsos

  23. Problem Statement # Infected above (epidemic) below (extinction) time Separate the regimes? Find, a condition under which • virus will die out exponentially quickly • regardless of initial infection condition B. A. Prakash; C. Faloutsos

  24. Threshold (static version) Problem Statement • Given: • Graph G, and • Virus specs (attack prob. etc.) • Find: • A condition for virus extinction/invasion B. A. Prakash; C. Faloutsos

  25. Threshold: Why important? • Accelerating simulations • Forecasting (‘What-if’ scenarios) • Design of contagion and/or topology • A great handle to manipulate the spreading • Immunization • Maximize collaboration ….. B. A. Prakash; C. Faloutsos

  26. Part 1: Theory • Q1: What is the epidemic threshold? • Background • Result and Intuition (Static Graphs) • Proof Ideas (Static Graphs) • Bonus: Dynamic Graphs • Q2: How do viruses compete? B. A. Prakash; C. Faloutsos

  27. Background “SIR” model: life immunity (mumps) • Each node in the graph is in one of three states • Susceptible (i.e. healthy) • Infected • Removed (i.e. can’t get infected again) Prob. β Prob. δ t = 1 t = 2 t = 3 B. A. Prakash; C. Faloutsos

  28. Background Terminology: continued • Other virus propagation models (“VPM”) • SIS : susceptible-infected-susceptible, flu-like • SIRS : temporary immunity, like pertussis • SEIR : mumps-like, with virus incubation (E = Exposed) ….…………. • Underlying contact-network – ‘who-can-infect-whom’ B. A. Prakash; C. Faloutsos

  30. Part 1: Theory • Q1: What is the epidemic threshold? • Background • Result and Intuition (Static Graphs) • Proof Ideas (Static Graphs) • Bonus: Dynamic Graphs • Q2: How do viruses compete? B. A. Prakash; C. Faloutsos

  31. How should the answer look like? ….. • Answer should depend on: • Graph • Virus Propagation Model (VPM) • But how?? • Graph – average degree? max. degree? diameter? • VPM – which parameters? • How to combine – linear? quadratic? exponential? B. A. Prakash; C. Faloutsos

  32. Static Graphs: Our Main Result • Informally, • For, • any arbitrary topology (adjacency • matrix A) • any virus propagation model (VPM) in • standard literature • the epidemic threshold depends only • on the λ,firsteigenvalueof A,and • some constant , determined by the virus propagation model λ • No epidemic if λ * < 1 In Prakash+ ICDM 2011 (Selected among best papers). B. A. Prakash; C. Faloutsos

  33. Our thresholds for some models s = effective strength s < 1 : below threshold B. A. Prakash; C. Faloutsos

  34. Our result: Intuition for λ “Official” definition: “Un-official” Intuition  λ ~ # paths in the graph • Let A be the adjacency matrix. Then λ is the root with the largest magnitude of the characteristic polynomial of A [det(A – xI)]. • Doesn’t give much intuition! u u ≈ . (i, j) = # of paths i j of length k B. A. Prakash; C. Faloutsos
