This book introduces the concepts of identifiability and observability in mathematical epidemiology, as well as those of observers’ constructions. It first exposes and illustrates on several examples the mathematical definitions and properties of observability and identifiability. A chapter is dedicated to the well-known Kermack McKendrick model, for which the complete analysis of identifiability and observability is not available in the literature. Then, several techniques of observer constructions, in view of online estimation of state and parameters, are presented and deployed on several models. New developments relevant for applications in epidemiology are also given. Finally, practical considerations are discussed with data and numerical simulations related to models previously analysed in the book.
The book will be appealing to epidemiological modellers and mathematicians working on models in epidemiology.This book contributes to Sustainable Development Goal 3 (SDG3): Good Health and Well Being.

About the Author
Nik Cunniffe is the head of Theoretical and Computational Epidemiology Group, Department of Plant Sciences, University of Cambridge (UK). His research focuses on modelling the spread, detection, evolution and control of plant pests and pathogens. His theoretical work uses deterministic, stochastic and spatial models to improve strategic understanding, while his applied work concentrates on using models to understand how detection and control can be optimized.
Frédéric Hamelin is Associate Professor in Quantitative Plant Disease Epidemiology at L’Institut Agro, Rennes, France. He is a member of the DEMECOLOGY (Dynamics, Evolution, Modelling, Ecology) Research Group of the Institute of Genetics, Environment and Plant Protection (IGEPP). His work is at the interface between mathematical ecology and plant disease epidemiology.
Abderrahman Iggidr is a full-time INRIA researcher at IECL (Institut Elie Cartan de Lorraine), France. His research interests include the control theory (stabilization of nonlinear systems, observability, and construction of observers), the mathematical epidemiology (modelling and model validation using data, qualitative and quantitative properties of epidemics models, design of software sensors for biological systems, dynamical estimation of unmeasured state variables and unknown parameters, etc.), and the modelling and control of renewable resources.
Alain Rapaport is a senior INRAE researcher at MISTEA (Mathematics, Informatics and Statistics for Environmental and Agronomics) Research Lab, Montpellier, France. His research interests include the modelling, control and optimization for microbial ecology; the management of renewable natural resources; and the theory of control and observation of dynamical systems and optimal control.
Gauthier Sallet is Emeritus Professor at IECL (Institut Elie Cartan de Lorraine), France. His main research activity is about the application of control theory to epidemiological models. He has been the team leader of the MASAIE (Tools and models of nonlinear control theory for epidemiology and immunology) INRIA Research Group from 2008 to 2014.

Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.

To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Majestic Books, Hounslow, United Kingdom, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
