Estimating the proportion of susceptible individuals for a dengue epidemic

Starting from the multi-scaled dengue system, we construct a pair of observers to estimate the dynamics of the disease. The nature of both the observers and the multi-scaled system allows to estimate both the number of susceptible and recovered hosts, as well as to provide information on the vector population, using only infected population data. Numerical simulations have been used to illustrate the performance of the observers.
