Specifically, we will look into the discrete and continuous stochastic process properties that appear in the discrete state space of various nucleotide base pairings models. The focus will be two models: Jukes-Cantor (JC69), the Kimura (K80) and their extensions.

First, we look at properties of the epidemic model, its stability and how an epidemic affects a population over time. Then we look at the properties of the endemic model, discuss its stability and solutions over time. Finally, we use influenza as an example for a modified endemic model and discuss how to improve the model's accuracy.
