Table 1 Quantities in the models
From: Can trials of spatial repellents be used to estimate mosquito movement?
Quantity | Description |
|---|---|
Included in model A and model B | |
 \( N_{t} \) | Number of mosquitoes caught in all houses on day \( t \) |
 \( C_{h} \) | Baseline proportion of mosquitoes in house \( h \) of mosquitoes in all houses, when there is zero coverage |
 \( P_{ht} \) | Proportion of mosquitoes in house \( h \) on day \( t \) of those in all houses |
 \( O_{at} \) | Proportion of mosquitoes diverted from house \( a \) on day \( t \) of those in all houses |
 \( I_{bt} \) | Proportion of mosquitoes diverted to house \( b \) on day \( t \) of those in all houses |
 \( Pr(M_{a.t} ) \) | Probability of mosquito being diverted from house \( a \) on day \( t \) |
 \( Pr(M_{abt} ) \) | Probability that diverted mosquitoes move from house \( a \) to house \( b \) |
 \( Q_{ht } \) | Predicted proportion of mosquitoes in house \( h \) on day \( t \) of those in all houses |
 \( \beta \) | Proportion of mosquitoes diverted of those in houses using repellent |
 \( \varphi \) | Proportion of mosquitoes moving to another house of those diverted |
 \( {{\uplambda }} \) | Mean distance between households for diverted mosquitoes |
 \( s_{at} \) | Presence of spatial repellent in house \( a \) on day \( t \) |
 \( d_{ab} \) | Distance between house \( a \) and house \( b \) |
Additionally included in model B | |
 \( N_{t}^{'} \) | Number of mosquitoes caught in houses and those diverted elsewhere |
 \( Q_{et}^{'} \) | Predicted proportion of mosquitoes diverted elsewhere on day \( t \) of mosquitoes in houses or diverted elsewhere |
 \( Q_{ht}^{'} \) | Predicted proportion of mosquitoes in house \( h \) on day \( t \) of those in all houses or diverted elsewhere |
