Relationships between body mass, population density, and the self-thinning rule in stream-living salmonids
In food and (or) space-limited populations, increases in average body size may be accompanied by increases in per capita space and (or) energy requirements. Thus, as body size increases in time or space, the equilibrium number of individuals that can be supported in a given environment should decrease. This relationship, referred to as self-thinning, produces a negative linear relationship betw...
متن کاملPersia and the Golden Rule
My paper has two parts. First, I talk about the golden rule. After introducing the rule and its global importance, I explain why many scholars dismiss it as a vague proverb that leads to absurdities when we try to formulate it clearly. I defend the golden rule against such objections. Second, I talk about the golden rule in Persia and Islam; I consider Persian sources (Muslim and non-Muslim) an...
متن کاملAnalysing multiparty competition in plurality rule elections
The study of general election outcomes can be helped by finding better approaches for visualizing large quantities of information and asking questions about its patterning. We review the Nagayama or ‘all possibilities’ triangle display, and show that it can only legitimately be used to show an overall ‘field’ of results that is logically feasible, called the effective space of competition, whic...
متن کاملA Rotation Invariant Rule-Based Thinning Algorithm for Character Recognition
This paper presents a novel rule-based system for thinning. The unique feature that distinguishes our thinning system is that it thins symbols to their central lines. This means that the shape of the symbol is preserved. It also means that the method is rotation invariant. The system has 20 rules in its inference engine. These rules are applied simultaneously to each pixel in the image. Therefo...
متن کاملRule-based joint fuzzy and probabilistic networks
One of the important challenges in Graphical models is the problem of dealing with the uncertainties in the problem. Among graphical networks, fuzzy cognitive map is only capable of modeling fuzzy uncertainty and the Bayesian network is only capable of modeling probabilistic uncertainty. In many real issues, we are faced with both fuzzy and probabilistic uncertainties. In these cases, the propo...
