Abstract: | The change of parameters may influence the dynamic behaviors of epidemic diseases. Biological system parameters can also be changed due to diverse uncertainties such as lack of data and errors in the statistical approach. The problem of how to define and decide the optimal-control strategies of epidemic diseases with imprecise parameters deserves further researches. The paper presents a stochastic susceptible, infected, and vaccinated (SIV) system that includes imprecise parameters. Firstly, we give the method of parameter estimates of the SIV model. Then, by using Ekeland's principle and Hamiltonian function, we obtain the sufficient conditions and necessary conditions of near-optimal control of the SIV epidemic model with imprecise parameters. At last, numerical examples prove our theoretical results. |
