Projecting social contact matrices to populations stratified by binary attributes with known homophily
Contact networks are heterogeneous. People with similar characteristics are more likely to interact, a phenomenon called assortative mixing or homophily. Empirical age-stratified social contact matrices have been derived by extensive survey work. We lack however similar empirical studies that provid...
