Abstract
This study briefly look at some of the statistical methods that have been developed
to model the HIVIAIDS epidemic and also use the back calculation method to estimate the
HIV infection rate in Penang. The back calculation program has been chosen to model the
underlying HIVIAIDS epidemic in Penang, Malaysia because it makes use of the AIDS
incidence data which is more reflective of the epidemic as compared to the number of HIV
infected recorded which is known only if tests are conducted
