Abstract

The paper is devoted to an overview of the current state of research on the modeling of epidemic processes. The classification of mathematical and simulation models of epidemic processes is carried out. The disadvantages of classical models are revealed. Specific characteristics inherent in epidemic processes have been determined, which must be taken into account when constructing mathematical and simulation models. A review of deterministic compartment models is carried out. Various methods and approaches to the construction of statistical models of epidemic processes are considered. The types of problems that are solved using machine learning are analyzed.
