This document demonstrates the algorithmic scaling properties and statistical behavior of EpiStrainDynamics models, addressing the following statistical software standards:

  • Scaling of algorithmic efficiency with input data size
  • Predicted values on appropriate scale relative to input
  • Recovery of input scales under various assumptions
  • Trivial noise should not meaningfully change results
  • Robustness to different random seeds

1. Algorithmic Scaling with Data Size

We test how computation time scales with increasing amounts of input data for both modeling approaches (random walk and p-spline) and across different pathogen structures.

1.1 Generate Test Data at Multiple Scales

We simulate realistic epidemic dynamics using SIR models with pathogen succession patterns.

# SIR model simulation function
simulate_sir <- function(n_days, R0, recovery_rate = 0.1, I0 = 0.01) {
  S <- numeric(n_days)
  I <- numeric(n_days)
  R <- numeric(n_days)

  S[1] <- 1 - I0
  I[1] <- I0
  R[1] <- 0

  beta <- R0 * recovery_rate

  for (t in 2:n_days) {
    dS <- -beta * S[t - 1] * I[t - 1]
    dI <- beta * S[t - 1] * I[t - 1] - recovery_rate * I[t - 1]
    dR <- recovery_rate * I[t - 1]

    S[t] <- max(0, S[t - 1] + dS)
    I[t] <- max(0, I[t - 1] + dI)
    R[t] <- min(1, R[t - 1] + dR)
  }

  return(I)
}

# Function to generate epidemic-like data with pathogen succession
generate_test_data <- function(n_timepoints, n_pathogens = 4, baseline_cases = 100) {
  dates <- seq.Date(
    from = as.Date("2020-01-01"),
    by = "day",
    length.out = n_timepoints
  )

  # Simulate pathogen dynamics with succession
  # Each pathogen has different R0 and timing
  pathogen_dynamics <- matrix(0, nrow = n_timepoints, ncol = n_pathogens)

  # Pathogen 1: Early peak, moderate R0
  pathogen_dynamics[, 1] <- simulate_sir(n_timepoints, R0 = 2.5, I0 = 0.02)

  # Pathogen 2: Mid-season peak, higher R0
  offset2 <- round(n_timepoints * 0.3)
  if (offset2 < n_timepoints) {
    pathogen_dynamics[offset2:n_timepoints, 2] <-
      simulate_sir(n_timepoints - offset2 + 1, R0 = 3.0, I0 = 0.01)
  }

  # Pathogen 3: Late peak, lower R0
  offset3 <- round(n_timepoints * 0.6)
  if (offset3 < n_timepoints) {
    pathogen_dynamics[offset3:n_timepoints, 3] <-
      simulate_sir(n_timepoints - offset3 + 1, R0 = 2.0, I0 = 0.015)
  }

  # Pathogen 4: Background/endemic, low level
  pathogen_dynamics[, 4] <- 0.05 * sin(seq(0, 2 * pi, length.out = n_timepoints)) + 0.1

  # Normalize to proportions
  row_sums <- rowSums(pathogen_dynamics)
  proportions <- pathogen_dynamics / row_sums

  # Generate total cases with epidemic-like pattern
  epidemic_trend <- rowSums(pathogen_dynamics) * baseline_cases
  total_cases <- rpois(n_timepoints, lambda = epidemic_trend)

  # Allocate to pathogens using multinomial sampling
  pathogen_counts <- matrix(0, nrow = n_timepoints, ncol = n_pathogens)
  for (t in 1:n_timepoints) {
    pathogen_counts[t, ] <- as.vector(rmultinom(1,
      size = total_cases[t],
      prob = proportions[t, ]
    ))
  }

  data.frame(
    date = dates,

    pathogen2 = pathogen_counts[, 2],
    pathogen3 = pathogen_counts[, 3],

  )

  time_single <- system.time({
    fit_single <- fit_model(model_single, n_chain = 2, n_iter = 500, verbose = FALSE)
  })

1.4 Visualize Scaling Behavior

# Combine all timings
all_timings <- rbind(rw_timings, ps_timings)

# Create log-log plot
ggplot(all_timings, aes(
  x = n_timepoints, y = time_seconds,
  color = method, linetype = pathogen_structure
)) +
  geom_point(size = 3) +
  geom_line(linewidth = 1) +
  scale_x_log10(breaks = data_sizes) +
  scale_y_log10() +
  labs(
    title = "Algorithmic Scaling: Computation Time vs Data Size",
    subtitle = "Log-log plot showing near-linear scaling",
    x = "Number of Time Points (log scale)",
    y = "Computation Time (seconds, log scale)",
    color = "Method",
    linetype = "Pathogen Structure"
  ) +

1.5 Quantify Scaling Coefficients

# Fit linear models on log-log scale to estimate scaling exponent
scaling_results <- all_timings %>%
  group_by(method, pathogen_structure) %>%
  summarise(
    # Fit log(time) ~ log(n)
    scaling_exponent = coef(lm(log(time_seconds) ~ log(n_timepoints)))[2],
    r_squared = summary(lm(log(time_seconds) ~ log(n_timepoints)))$r.squared,
    .groups = "drop"
  )

knitr::kable(scaling_results,
  digits = 3,
  caption = "Scaling exponents: time complexity approximately O(n^exponent)"
)
Scaling exponents: time complexity approximately O(n^exponent)
method pathogen_structure scaling_exponent r_squared
p_spline multiple 0.898 0.985
p_spline single 0.605 0.937
random_walk multiple 0.874 0.999
random_walk single 0.506 0.934

Interpretation: Exponents close to 1.0 indicate linear scaling O(n), which is expected for these Bayesian time series models. Values slightly above 1.0 may indicate some overhead from MCMC sampling that scales slightly super-linearly.


2. Predicted Values on Appropriate Scale

We verify that fitted/predicted values are on the same scale as the input data.

# Use package data
data(sarscov2)

# Fit model
model <- construct_model(
  pathogen_structure = multiple(
    data = sarscov2,
    case_timeseries = "cases",
    time = "date",
    component_pathogen_timeseries = c("alpha", "delta", "omicron", "other")
  ),
  method = random_walk()
)

fit <- fit_model(model, n_chain = 2, n_iter = 1000, verbose = FALSE)

# Extract incidence (predicted values)
inc <- incidence(fit, dow = FALSE)
inc_total <- inc$measure[inc$measure$pathogen == "Total", ]

# Compare scales
input_summary <- data.frame(
  metric = c("min", "median", "mean", "max", "sd"),
  input_cases = c(
    min(sarscov2$cases),
    median(sarscov2$cases),
    mean(sarscov2$cases),
    max(sarscov2$cases),
    sd(sarscov2$cases)
  ),
  predicted_cases = c(
    min(inc_total$y),
    median(inc_total$y),
    mean(inc_total$y),
    max(inc_total$y),
    sd(inc_total$y)
  )
)

input_summary$ratio <- input_summary$predicted_cases / input_summary$input_cases

knitr::kable(input_summary,
  digits = 2,
  caption = "Comparison of input and predicted case scales"
)
Comparison of input and predicted case scales
metric input_cases predicted_cases ratio
min 1433.00 1963.45 1.37
median 18286.50 18512.57 1.01
mean 28653.21 28625.48 1.00
max 275647.00 266095.27 0.97
sd 34268.32 33863.80 0.99
# Visual comparison with credible intervals
plot_data <- data.frame(
  date = sarscov2$date,
  observed = sarscov2$cases,
  predicted = inc_total$y,
  lower_50 = inc_total$lb_50,
  upper_50 = inc_total$ub_50,
  lower_95 = inc_total$lb_95,
  upper_95 = inc_total$ub_95
)

ggplot(plot_data, aes(x = date)) +
  geom_ribbon(aes(ymin = lower_95, ymax = upper_95), alpha = 0.2, fill = "blue") +
  geom_ribbon(aes(ymin = lower_50, ymax = upper_50), alpha = 0.3, fill = "blue") +
  geom_line(aes(y = observed, color = "Observed"), linewidth = 1) +
  geom_line(aes(y = predicted, color = "Predicted"), linewidth = 1) +
  scale_color_manual(values = c("Observed" = "black", "Predicted" = "blue")) +
  labs(
    title = "Input vs Predicted Values: Scale Verification",
    subtitle = "Predicted values (with 50% and 95% credible intervals) match the scale of observed data",
    x = "Date",
    y = "Cases",
    color = ""
  ) +
  theme_minimal() +
  theme(legend.position = "bottom")

plot of chunk plot-scale-comparison

Conclusion: Predicted values are on the same scale as input data, with similar ranges and distributions. Credible intervals appropriately capture the observed data.


3. Scale Recovery Under Different Assumptions

Test whether the model correctly recovers input scales when data have different properties (non-zero means, different magnitudes, etc.).

# Test with data at different scales
test_scales <- c(10, 100, 1000)
recovery_results <- data.frame(
  input_scale = numeric(),
  input_mean = numeric(),
  predicted_mean = numeric(),
  relative_error = numeric()
)

for (scale in test_scales) {
  # Generate data at this scale
  n <- 100
  test_data <- generate_test_data(n, baseline_cases = scale)

  # Fit model
  model <- construct_model(
    pathogen_structure = single(
      data = test_data,
      case_timeseries = "cases",
      time = "date"
    ),
    method = random_walk()
  )

  fit <- fit_model(model, n_chain = 2, n_iter = 500, verbose = FALSE)
  inc <- incidence(fit, dow = FALSE)
  inc_values <- inc$measure$y

  # Record results
  recovery_results <- rbind(recovery_results, data.frame(
    input_scale = scale,
    input_mean = mean(test_data$cases),
    predicted_mean = mean(inc_values),
    relative_error = abs(mean(inc_values) - mean(test_data$cases)) / mean(test_data$cases)
  ))
}

knitr::kable(recovery_results,
  digits = 2,
  caption = "Scale recovery across different input magnitudes"
)
Scale recovery across different input magnitudes
input_scale input_mean predicted_mean relative_error
10 3.01 3.16 0.05
100 30.43 30.59 0.01
1000 318.94 317.66 0.00
ggplot(recovery_results, aes(x = input_mean, y = predicted_mean)) +
  geom_point(size = 4) +
  geom_abline(slope = 1, intercept = 0, linetype = "dashed", color = "red") +
  scale_x_log10() +
  scale_y_log10() +
  labs(
    title = "Scale Recovery Test",
    subtitle = "Perfect recovery would lie on the red diagonal",
    x = "Input Mean (log scale)",
    y = "Predicted Mean (log scale)"
  ) +
  theme_minimal()

Conclusion: The model successfully recovers scales across multiple orders of magnitude.


4. Robustness to Trivial Noise

Test whether adding small amounts of noise to the input data meaningfully changes results.

set.seed(999)

# Fit model to original data
model_original <- construct_model(
  pathogen_structure = multiple(
    data = sarscov2,
    case_timeseries = "cases",
    time = "date",
    component_pathogen_timeseries = c("alpha", "delta", "omicron", "other")
  ),
  method = random_walk()
)

fit_original <- fit_model(model_original,
  n_chain = 2, n_iter = 1000,
  seed = 54321, verbose = FALSE
)
inc_original <- incidence(fit_original, dow = FALSE)
inc_original_total <- inc_original$measure[inc_original$measure$pathogen == "Total", ]

# Test with different noise levels
noise_levels <- c(0.05, 0.1) # 5%, 10% noise relative to mean
noise_results <- list()

for (noise_level in noise_levels) {
  # Add noise to case counts
  noisy_cases <- pmax(1, round(sarscov2$cases +
    rnorm(length(sarscov2$cases),
      mean = 0,
      sd = noise_level * mean(sarscov2$cases)
    )))

  # Also add proportional noise to pathogen counts
  sarscov2_noisy <- sarscov2
  sarscov2_noisy$cases <- noisy_cases

  for (pathogen in c("alpha", "delta", "omicron", "other")) {
    sarscov2_noisy[[pathogen]] <- pmax(0, round(
      sarscov2[[pathogen]] + rnorm(length(sarscov2[[pathogen]]),
        mean = 0,
        sd = noise_level * mean(sarscov2[[pathogen]])
      )
    ))
  }

  # Fit model to noisy data
  model_noisy <- construct_model(
    pathogen_structure = multiple(
      data = sarscov2_noisy,
      case_timeseries = "cases",
      time = "date",
      component_pathogen_timeseries = c("alpha", "delta", "omicron", "other")
    ),
    method = random_walk()
  )

  fit_noisy <- fit_model(model_noisy,
    n_chain = 2, n_iter = 1000,
    seed = 54321, verbose = FALSE
  )
  inc_noisy <- incidence(fit_noisy, dow = FALSE)

  noise_results[[as.character(noise_level)]] <-
    inc_noisy$measure[inc_noisy$measure$pathogen == "Total", ]
}

4.1 Quantify Impact of Noise

# Calculate correlation and RMSE for each noise level
noise_comparison <- data.frame(
  noise_level = noise_levels,
  correlation = sapply(noise_results, function(x) cor(x$y, inc_original_total$y)),
  rmse = sapply(noise_results, function(x) sqrt(mean((x$y - inc_original_total$y)^2))),
  relative_rmse = sapply(noise_results, function(x) {
    sqrt(mean((x$y - inc_original_total$y)^2)) / mean(inc_original_total$y)
  }),
  mean_difference = sapply(noise_results, function(x) mean(abs(x$y - inc_original_total$y)))
)

Conclusion: The model is robust to trivial noise in input data. Correlations remain high (>0.95) and relative differences are small even with 10% noise, indicating that small measurement errors or data quality issues do not substantially affect results.

#> Mean pairwise correlation: 1

Conclusion: High correlations (>0.99) between runs with different seeds indicate that results are robust and not meaningfully affected by random seed choice. Overlapping credible intervals confirm consistency across stochastic runs.


Summary

This document demonstrates that EpiStrainDynamics:

  1. Exhibits approximately linear scaling O(n) with input data size, making it computationally efficient for real-world surveillance data
  2. Produces predicted values on the same scale as input data
  3. Successfully recovers scales across multiple orders of magnitude
  4. Is robust to trivial noise in input data, with minimal impact on predictions
  5. Produces robust, reproducible results regardless of random seed choice

All demonstrations use realistic epidemic dynamics generated via SIR models with pathogen succession patterns, ensuring the model is tested on data similar to its intended use case.
