+ The serial interval (SI) is not one of the estimators. It is a parameter required by most of the estimators, and can
+ also be estimated by some of them (if not specified).

+<p>
+ The SI is defined as the average time between successive infections in a chain of transmission (i.e., the time between
+ the infection of an infected individual and their subsequent transmissions).
