The Inherent Randomness of Evolving Populations
The entropy rates of the Wright-Fisher process, the Moran process, and generalizations are computed and used to compare these processes and their dependence on standard evolutionary parameters. Entropy rates are measures of the variation dependent on both short-run and long-run behavior, and allow the relationships between mutation, selection, and population size to be examined. Bounds for the ...
متن کاملModelling evolving populations.
A formalism is presented for modelling the evolutionary dynamics of a population of gene sequences. The formalism was originally developed for describing genetic algorithms. In this paper the formalism is elaborated by considering the evolution of an ensemble of populations. This allows the evolution to be modelled more accurately. To illustrate the formalism the problem of a population of gene...
متن کاملEvolving populations with overlapping
In this paper, we extend a previously published model of an evolving nite population of multi-loci organisms, where the dynamics of the evolving system are described by the cumulants of the population eecacy distribution. We consider the case of overlapping generations and compare it to the previously studied case where generations are discrete. In the weak selection limit, we can solve the dyn...
متن کاملTensions inherent in the evolving role of the infection preventionist.
BACKGROUND The role of infection preventionists (IPs) is expanding in response to demands for quality and transparency in health care. Practice analyses and survey research have demonstrated that IPs spend a majority of their time on surveillance and are increasingly responsible for prevention activities and management; however, deeper qualitative aspects of the IP role have rarely been explore...
متن کاملStability of Evolving Agent Populations
Stability is perhaps the most desired feature in the systems that we design. It is important for us to be able to predict the response of a Multi-Agent System (MAS) to various environmental conditions prior to its actual deployment. The Chli-DeWilde agent stability measure views a MAS as a discrete time Markov chain with a potentially unknown transition probabilities. A MAS is considered to be ...
