matrix of expected new infections each type of infective causes in each type of host, whose dominant eigenvalue defines the basic reproduction number in structured populations.

In infectious disease epidemiology, next-generation matrix refers to matrix of expected new infections each type of infective causes in each type of host, whose dominant eigenvalue defines the basic reproduction number in structured populations. This meaning comes from Diekmann (1990) in Journal of Mathematical Biology.[1]
