A New Framework for Distributed Multivariate Feature Selection
Feature selection is considered as an important issue in classification domain. Selecting a good feature through maximum relevance criterion to class label and minimum redundancy among features affect improving the classification accuracy. However, most current feature selection algorithms just work with the centralized methods. In this paper, we suggest a distributed version of the mRMR featu...
متن کاملEcological neighborhoods : scaling environmental patterns
In this paper we review, develop, and differentiate among concepts associated with environmental patterning (patch,-division, and heterogeneity), spatial and temporal scales of ecological proaesses (ecological neighborhoods), and responses of organisms to environmental patterning (relative patch size, relative patch duration, ielative patgh isolation" and grain lespoqse), We gencralizc the conc...
متن کاملEcological equivalency as a tool for endangered species management.
The use of taxon substitutes for extinct or endangered species is a controversial conservation measure. We use the example of the endangered California tiger salamander (Ambystoma californiense; CTS), which is being replaced by hybrids with the invasive barred tiger salamander (Ambystoma mavortium), to illustrate a strategy for evaluating taxon substitutes based on their position in a multivari...
متن کاملEcological selection as the cause and sexual differentiation as the consequence of species divergence?
Key conceptual issues about speciation go unanswered without consideration of non-mutually exclusive factors. With tests based on speciation theory, we exploit the island distribution and habitat differences exhibited by the Caribbean cricket Amphiacusta sanctaecrucis, and with an analysis of divergent ecological selection, sexually selected differentiation and geographical isolation, address h...
