Bayes-Optimal Chemotaxis
Chemotaxis plays a crucial role in many biological processes, including nervous system development. However, fundamental physical constraints limit the ability of a small sensing device such as a cell or growth cone to detect an external chemical gradient. One of these is the stochastic nature of receptor binding, leading to a constantly fluctuating binding pattern across the cell's array of re...
متن کاملRestricted Bayes Optimal Classifiers
We introduce the notion of restricted Bayes optimal classifiers. These classifiers attempt to combine the flexibility of the generative approach to classification with the high accuracy associated with discriminative learning. They first create a model of the joint distribution over class labels and features. Instead of choosing the decision boundary induced directly from the model, they restri...
متن کاملBayes Optimal Instance-Based Learning
In this paper we present a probabilistic formalization of the instance-based learning approach. In our Bayesian framework, moving from the construction of an explicit hypothesis to a data-driven instance-based learning approach, is equivalent to averaging over all the (possibly innnitely many) individual models. The general Bayesian instance-based learning framework described in this paper can ...
متن کاملLearning Optimal Augmented Bayes Networks
Naive Bayes is a simple Bayesian classifier with strong independence assumptions among the attributes. This classifier, despite its strong independence assumptions, often performs well in practice. It is believed that relaxing the independence assumptions of a naive Bayes classifier may improve the classification accuracy of the resulting structure. While finding an optimal unconstrained Bayesi...
متن کاملOptimal search in E. coli chemotaxis.
We study chemotaxis of a single E. coli bacterium in a medium where the nutrient chemical is also undergoing diffusion and its concentration has the form of a Gaussian whose width increases with time. We measure the average first passage time of the bacterium at a region of high nutrient concentration. In the limit of very slow nutrient diffusion, the bacterium effectively experiences a Gaussia...
