Table 2. Results of the reanalysis of the synthetic cohort study.

Function Fitted parameters ΔAIC
h/E b Other θ

The first column shows the function describing a relationship between EIR and transmission efficiency, h/E, that was fitted to the data. The next three columns show the fitted parameter estimates. The parameter b means the same in all the models, and the parameter θ accounts for extra-binomial variation. The final column shows the ΔAIC values, that is, the AIC values relative to the minimum.
