Compute the p by p matrix \(\mathcal{D}\) whose columns describe
how potentially infectious person time from persons in that patch are dispersed
across other patches.
$$\mathcal{D} = \mbox{diag}\left(W \right) \cdot \beta^T \cdot \mbox{diag}\left(bDH\right) \cdot \beta$$
Arguments
- W
ambient human population at each patch
- beta
the biting distribution matrix
- b
transmission efficiency from mosquitoes to humans
- D
human transmitting capacity
- H
human population size of each strata
Value
a numeric matrix
