- Abstract
- This Reference Document describes the PyCoMod (Python Compartment Modelling) code package. PyCoMod is used to build and run compartment models, such as susceptible-infectious-recovered (SIR) models of infectious disease. The package was initially developed to support analyses of the spread of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) in specific scenarios relevant to the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) during the pandemic in 2020 and 2021. Over the course of multiple studies conducted during this period in collaboration with the Canadian Forces Health Services Group, the package evolved to include many features making it useful as a general modelling and simulation tool. The use of PyCoMod and its features will be described in detail in this Document.
