How various design decisions on matching individuals in relationships affect the outcomes of microsimulations of sexually transmitted infection epidemics.
Microsimulations are increasingly used to estimate the prevalence of sexually transmitted infections (STIs). These models consist of agents which represent a sexually active population. Matching agents into sexual relationships is computationally intensive and presents modellers with difficult desig...
