abstract: A convenient framework for aggregating and disaggregating continuously varying
  parameters (for example, case fatality ratio, with age) for proper parametrization
  of lower-resolution compartmental models (for example, with broad age categories)
  and subsequent upscaling of model outputs to high resolution (for example, as needed
  when calculating age-sensitive measures like years-life-lost). Methods and application
  to calculating years of life lost are described in Goodfellow et al. (2025) <https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pcbi.1013420>.
