Codes

1. The Swift-Hohenberg (SH35) model solved on a finite disk using PDE2PATH: A quick-start document can be accessed here and the repository here.
2. Individual Based Model for the propagation of Gonorrhoea: The original version was developed by Adam Zienkiewicz. The first commit corresponds to the case of (M)en having (S)ex with (M)en. Repository here. Additionally, a version considering a heterosexual partnership network here
3. HVG in R: My first attempt to write an R-package. The alogithm takes a time series as an input and creates the (H)orizontal (V)isibility (G)raph. Acess to the repository here
