Abstract
In this paper mathematical modeling of Malaria infection has been done on the basic of possibility of relapses. The misdiagnosis in terms of false negatives is taken into account. The analysis consists of the derivation of state probabilities and the estimation processor. The model provides an understanding of the process of Malaria infection of human host. The out comes may be useful for the medical doctors for the prevention of Malaria disease.
