Demographics parameters

The parameters described in this reference section can be added to the JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) formatted demographics file to determine the demographics of the population within each geographic node in a simulation. For example, the number of individuals and the distribution for age, gender, immunity, risk, and mortality. These parameters work closely with the Population dynamics parameters in the configuration file, which are simulation-wide and generally control whether certain events, such as births or deaths, are enabled in a simulation.

Generally, you will download a demographics file and modify it to meet the needs of your simulation. Demographics files for several locations are available on the Institute for Disease Modeling (IDM) GitHub EMOD-InputData repository or you can use COmputational Modeling Platform Service (COMPS) to generate demographics and climate files for a particular region. By convention, these are named using the name of the region appended with “_demographics.json”, but you may name the file anything you like.

Additionally, you can use more than one demographics file, with one serving as the base layer and the one or more others acting as overlays that override the values in the base layer. This can be helpful if you want to experiment with different values in the overlay without modifying your base file. For more information, see Demographics file.

At least one demographics file is required for every simulation unless you set the parameter Enable_Demographics_Builtin to 1 (one) in the configuration file. This setting does not represent a real location and is generally only used for testing and validating code pathways rather than actual modeling of disease.

Demographics files are organized into four main sections: Metadata, NodeProperties, Defaults, and Nodes. The following example shows the skeletal format of a demographics file.

{
     "Metadata": {
          "DateCreated": "dateTime",
          "Tool": "scriptUsedToGenerate",
          "Author": "author",
          "IdReference": "Gridded world grump2.5arcmin",
          "NodeCount": 2
     },
     "NodeProperties": [
          {}
     ],
     "Defaults": {
          "NodeAttributes": {},
          "IndividualAttributes": {},
          "IndividualProperties": {},
          "Society": {}
     },
     "Nodes": [{
          "NodeID": 1,
          "NodeAttributes": {},
          "IndividualAttributes": {},
          "IndividualProperties": {},
          "Society": {}
     }, {
          "NodeID": 2,
          "NodeAttributes": {},
          "IndividualAttributes": {},
          "IndividualProperties": {},
          "Society": {}
     }]
}

All parameters except those in the Metadata and NodeProperties sections below can appear in either the Defaults section or the Nodes section of the demographics file. Parameters under Defaults will be applied to all nodes in the simulation. Parameters under Nodes will be applied to specific nodes, overriding the values in Defaults if they appear in both. Each node in the Nodes section is identified using a unique NodeID.

The tables below contain only parameters available when using the tuberculosis simulation type.

Note

Parameters are case-sensitive. For Boolean parameters, set to 1 for true or 0 for false. Minimum, maximum, or default values of “NA” indicate that those values are not applicable for that parameter.

EMOD does not use true defaults; that is, if the dependency relationships indicate that a parameter is required, you must supply a value for it. However, many of the tools used to work with EMOD will use the default values provided below.

JSON does not permit comments, but you can add “dummy” parameters to add contextual information to your files.

Metadata

Metadata provides information about data provenance. NodeCount and IdReference are the only parameters used by EMOD, but you are encouraged to included information for your own reference. For example, author, date created, tool used, and more are commonly included in the Metadata section. You can include any information you like here provided it is in valid JSON format.

If you generate input files using COMPS, the following IdReference values are possible and indicate how the NodeID values are generated:

Gridded world grump30arcsec

Nodes are approximately square regions defined by a 30-arc second grid and the NodeID values are generated from the latitude and longitude of the northwest corner.

Gridded world grump2.5arcmin

Nodes are approximately square regions defined by a 2.5-arc minute grid and the NodeID values are generated from the latitude and longitude of the northwest corner.

Gridded world grump1degree

Nodes are approximately square regions defined by a 1-degree grid and the NodeID values are generated from the latitude and longitude of the northwest corner.

The algorithm for encoding latitude and longitude into a NodeID is as follows:

unsigned int xpix = math.floor((lon + 180.0) / resolution)
unsigned int ypix = math.floor((lat + 90.0) / resolution)
unsigned int NodeID = (xpix << 16) + ypix + 1

This generates a NodeID that is a 4-byte unsigned integer; the first two bytes represent the longitude of the node and the second two bytes represent the latitude. To reserve 0 to be used as a null value, 1 is added to the NodeID as part of the final calculation.

        "NodeCount": 1
    }
}

NodeProperties and IndividualProperties

Node properties and individual properties are set similarly and share many of the same parameters. Properties can be thought of as tags that are assigned to nodes or individuals and can then be used to either target interventions to nodes or individuals with certain properties (or prevent them from being targeted). For example, you could define individual properties for disease risk and then target an intervention to only those at high risk. Similarly, you could define properties for node accessibility and set lower intervention coverage for nodes that are difficult to access.

Individual properties are also used to simulate health care cascades. For example, you can disqualify an individual who would otherwise receive an intervention; such as treating a segment of the population with a second-line treatment but disqualifying those who haven’t already received the first-line treatment. Then you can change the property value after the treatment has been received.

The NodeProperties section is a top-level section at the same level as Defaults and Nodes that contains parameters that assign properties to nodes in a simulation. The IndividualProperties section is under either Defaults or Nodes and contains parameters that assign properties to individuals in a simulation.

Individual and node properties provides more guidance and Generic model scenarios provides some example scenarios that use properties.

Age_Bin_Edges_In_Years

array

NA

NA

NA

An array of integers that represents the ages, in years, at which to demarcate the age groups for individuals. Used only with the Age_Bin property type. The first number must be 0, the last must be -1, and they must be listed in ascending order. Cannot be used with NodeProperties.

EMOD automatically create the individual property Age_Bin with values based on the bin edges using the format Age_Bin_Property_From_X_To_Y. These appear in the property reports and can be used to target campaign interventions using Property_Restrictions_Within_Node. See Targeting interventions to nodes or individuals for more information.

The following example creates three age groups: 0 to 5, older than 5 to 13, and older than 13 to the maximum age.

The IndividualAttributes section contains parameters that initialize the distribution of attributes across individuals, such as the age or immunity. An initial value for an individual is a randomly selected value from a given distribution. These distributions can be configured using a simple flag system of three parameters or a complex system of many more parameters. The following table contains the parameters that can be used with either distribution system.

IndividualAttributes

JSON object

NA

NA

NA

The structure that contains parameters that add or modify the distribution of attributes across individuals in a simulation. For example, the age or immunity distribution. An initial value for an individual is a randomly selected value from a distribution. For example, if you use a uniform distribution to initialize age, the initial ages of individuals in the simulation will be evenly distributed between some minimum and maximum value. These distributions can be set using Simple distributions or Complex distributions.

        }
    }
}

PercentageChildren

float

0

1

NA

The percentage of individuals in the node that are children. Set Minimum_Adult_Age_Years to determine the age at which individuals transition to adults.

        "IndividualAttributes": {
            "PercentageChildren": 0.7
        }
    }
}

Simple distributions

Simple distributions are defined by three parameters where one is a flag for the distribution type and the other two are used to further define the distribution. For example, if you set the age flag to a uniform distribution, the initial ages of individuals in the simulation will be evenly distributed between some minimum and maximum value as defined by the other two parameters.

Complex distributions

Complex distributions are more effort to configure, but are useful for representing real-world data where the distribution does not fit a standard. Individual attribute values are drawn from a piecewise linear distribution. The distribution is configured using arrays of axes (such as gender or age) and values at points along each of these axes. This allows you to have different distributions for different groups in the population.

MortalityDistribution

JSON object

NA

NA

NA

The distribution of non-disease mortality for a population. Death_Rate_Dependence in the configuration file must be set to NONDISEASE_MORTALITY_BY_AGE_AND_GENDER or NONDISEASE_MORTALITY_BY_YEAR_AND_AGE_FOR_EACH_GENDER (see Mortality and survival parameters).

Warning

Mortality is sampled every 30 days. To correctly attribute neonatal deaths to days 0-30, you must indicate that the threshold for the first age group in PopulationGroups is less than 30 days.

PopulationGroups

matrix of integers

NA

NA

NA

An array in which each row represents one of the distribution axes and contains the values that the independent variable can take. The values must be listed in ascending order and each defines the left edge of the bin.

Warning

Mortality is sampled every 30 days. To correctly attribute neonatal deaths to days 0-30, you must indicate that the threshold for the first age group in PopulationGroups is less than 30 days.

The following example configures relatively high infant mortality and lower mortality at ages 10 and 40, with everyone dead by age 120.

ResultValues

array of floats

NA

NA

NA

An array in which each row represents one of the distribution axes and contains the dependent variable values. The units are configurable; the values are scaled by the value in ResultScaleFactor before being passed to EMOD in units of days.

For age distributions, it lists in ascending order the ages at which to bin the population. The corresponding values in DistributionValues represent the proportion of the population that is below that age. If the first member of the array is non-zero, the first bin is defined as those with that exact value (EMOD does not assume the bins start at zero).

For all other distributions, an array in which each row represents the values for a combination of axes. For example, a mortality distribution that includes both gender and age axes will have a row for males and a row for females that each contain the mortality rate at various ages set in PopulationGroups.

The following example shows an age distribution in which 10% of individuals are newborn, 25% are under age 5, 50% are between 5 and 20, and 25% are between 20 and 35.
