Abstract

Based on uncertainty theory, this paper studies an uncertain SIS epidemic model with nonlinear incidence and demography. The solution, \(\alpha \)-paths and uncertainty distribution of uncertain model are discussed. Under threshold conditions, extinction and permanence of the disease are studied by \(\alpha \)-paths, which reveal the relationship of deterministic and uncertain models. An example is given to illustrate the above results.
