混合矩阵可以用来描述具有群体结构异质性的数学模型中的子群体相互作用。讨论了两种不同的方法来表述这种混合矩阵。以HIV传播动力学模型为例,讨论了这两种方法之间的关系。随后讨论了混合矩阵方法在种群生物学其他领域的应用,并对理论生态学中可能应用于理论流行病学的最新进展进行了补充概述。
Mixing matrices can be used to describe subgroup interactions in mathematical models which have heterogeneity in population structure. A discussion is presented of two different approaches to the formulation of such mixing matrices. The relation between the two different methods is discussed, using examples based upon models of the transmission dynamics of HIV. There follows a discussion of the application of the mixing matrix approach to other areas in population biology, and a complementary overview of recent advances in theoretical ecology that may have applications in theoretical epidemiology.
