The project investigates a brief introduction of the Susceptible-Infected-Removed (SIR) Model and implements it through agent-based, ODE continuous and spacial simulation, indicating that this model can be quite useful in contagion studies. By reviewing a few existing literature, some extensions as well as variations under the SIR model are explored, which includes considering the effect of quarantine, estimating a time-varying parameter, and introducing a new strain.
