Characterizing superspreading potential of infectious disease: Decomposition of individual transmissibility
Fig 4
Simulation results of the expected proportion of secondary cases (Q) due to the proportion of the most infectious cases (P), i.e., Lorenz curve, generated from Poisson (in orange), negative binomial (in blue), and Delaporte (in purple) distributions.
In each panel, the diagonal line shows the scenario of perfect homogeneity (i.e., uniform distribution). In each panel label, ‘fixed frac.’ is the fraction of fixed component (ρ), and ‘disp.’ is the dispersion parameter (k).
