Stochastic SIR model with jumps

People have always attached importance to the prevention and the control of the epidemic disease. The study of the epidemic model provides us a powerful tool. Unfortunately the previous model cannot be applied to massive diseases, such as avian influenza. Therefore we need to revise the model. In this paper, we take the lead in using the stochastic differential equation with jumps to study the asymptotic behavior of the stochastic SIR model. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
