Extending Genetic Algorithms
This report discusses some extensions of traditional Genetic Algorithms, such as genomes containing promoter and terminator sequences, algorithms with a developmental phase (embryogeny), and models using more extensive metabolisms. Benefits and drawbacks of these extensions are discussed, and some articles discussing them are summarized. A discussion of the presented methods and article conclud...
متن کاملExtending Theory-Based Quantitative Predictions to New Health Behaviors.
BACKGROUND Traditional null hypothesis significance testing suffers many limitations and is poorly adapted to theory testing. PURPOSE A proposed alternative approach, called Testing Theory-based Quantitative Predictions, uses effect size estimates and confidence intervals to directly test predictions based on theory. METHOD This paper replicates findings from previous smoking studies and ex...
متن کاملTumor control probability predictions for genetic radiotherapy.
PURPOSE Genetic radiotherapy, the combination of gene therapy and radiation therapy, for cancer treatment is evolving from laboratory studies to clinical trials. Genetic radiotherapy involves the viral infection of cells that change the sensitivity of transduced cells to radiation. Because there is no patient outcome data for genetic radiotherapy, prospective models are needed to determine the ...
متن کاملMolecular-genetic Extensions of Vavilov’s Predictions
Vavilov’s Law of Homologous Series indicates that heritable variation for a given trait will occur in different species based on parallel selection. The conclusion comes fromVavilov’s study of extensive collections and careful attention to phenotypic variation across taxa. The same examination of variation can be applied to traits using the power of genetic and genomic resolution, because paral...
متن کاملGenetic models of homosexuality: generating testable predictions.
Homosexuality is a common occurrence in humans and other species, yet its genetic and evolutionary basis is poorly understood. Here, we formulate and study a series of simple mathematical models for the purpose of predicting empirical patterns that can be used to determine the form of selection that leads to polymorphism of genes influencing homosexuality. Specifically, we develop theory to mak...
