Descriptions of all parameters used in our method.

The parameters’ values are either set by input data, assumed, calculated from other parameters, or estimated via MCMC, which is specified in the Source column. Parameters in the first section are used universally across the cases, those in the second section are used for the discrete case, and those in the third section are used for the continuous case. Note that in the table, all probabilities of infection, risks of infection, and expected fractions infected are conditional on an individual showing up in a contact network and therefore do not depend on the overall force of infection in the population.
