Bayesian prediction of under-five mortality rates for Tanzania
Mwanga, Mohamed; Mirau, Silas; Tchuenche, Jean; Mbalawata, Isambi (Elsevier Inc., 2025-01-26)Under-five mortality is a burden on health and economic systems in developing countries. This study used under-five mortality rate (U5MR) data for Tanzania from 1960 to 2020 to predict trends of under-five mortality ... -
A comparative approach of analyzing data uncertainty in parameter estimation for a Lumpy Skin Disease model
Renald, Edwiga; Amadi, Miracle; Haario, Heikki; Buza, Joram; Tchuenche, Jean; Masanja, Verdiana (Elsevier, 2025-01-20)The livestock industry has been economically affected by the emergence and reemergence of infectious diseases such as Lumpy Skin Disease (LSD). This has driven the interest to research efficient mitigating measures towards ... -
A deterministic mathematical model with non-linear least squares method for investigating the transmission dynamics of lumpy skin disease
Renald, Edwiga; Masanja, Verdiana; Tchuenche, Jean; Buza, Joram (Elsevier, 2024-05-18)Lumpy skin disease (LSD) is an economically significant viral disease of cattle caused by the lumpy disease virus (LSDV) which is primarily spread mechanically by blood feeding vectors such as particular species in flies, ... -
Extinction and persistence of lumpy skin disease: a deep learning framework for parameter estimation and model simulation
Renald, Edwiga; Tchuenche, Jean; Buza, Joram; Masanja, Verdiana (Springer Nature Link, 2024-12-31)Lumpy Skin Disease (LSD) of cattle, an infectious and fatal viral ailment, poses a significant challenge to the farming sector due to its economic impact. A deterministic Susceptible-Exposed-Infectious-Recovered-Susceptible ... -
Posterior Distribution of the Unknown Parameter of Poisson Distribution Under Different Priors: An Application to Under-Fivemortality Data
Mwanga, Mohamed; Tchuenche, Jean; Mirau, Silas; Mbalawata, Isambi (Elsevier Inc, 2023-04-23)Under-five mortality rate is one of the most essential indicator of acountry’s socio-economic well-being and public health status. Poissondistribution under different priors such as conjugate/Gamma prior,uniform and Jeffrey’s ... -

The role of modeling in the epidemiology and control of lumpy skin disease: a systematic review
Renald, Edwiga; Buza, Joram; Tchuenche, Jean; Masanja, Verdiana (Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2023-09-15)Background Lumpy skin disease (LSD) is an economically important viral disease of cattle caused by lumpy disease virus (LSDV) and transmitted by blood-feeding insects, such as certain species of flies and mosquitoes, or ...
