Estimate and understand individual-level variation in transmission. Implements density and cumulative compound Poisson discrete distribution functions (Kremer et al. (2021) <doi:10.1038/s41598-021-93578-x>), as well as functions to calculate infectious disease outbreak statistics given epidemiological parameters on individual-level transmission; including the probability of an outbreak becoming an epidemic/extinct (Kucharski et al. (2020) <doi:10.1016/S1473-3099(20)30144-4>), or the cluster size statistics, e.g. what proportion of cases cause X\% of transmission (Lloyd-Smith et al. (2005) <doi:10.1038/nature04153>).
