Natural Selection of Path Characters in a Network
We present a novel algorithm that exhibits natural selection of paths in a network. If each node and weighted directed edge has a unique identifier, a path in the network is defined as an ordered list of these unique identifiers. We take a population perspective and view each path as a genotype. If each node has a node phenotype then a path phenotype is defined as the list of node phenotypes in...
متن کاملNumerical Effects of Natural Selection Acting upon Mendelian Characters.
The relation of recent work in genetics to the Darwinian theory is still in dispute. The value of the natural selection hypothesis can only be determined by appropriate experimental tests. At present there appears to be no inherent incompatibility between DARWIN’S fundamental principles and the newer concepts of pure lines, mutations, and unit characters. To some the action of natural selection...
متن کاملSelection on multiple characters
So far we’ve studied only the evolution of a single trait, e.g., height or weight. But organisms have many traits, and they evolve at the same time. How can we understand their simultaneous evolution? The basic framework of the quantitative genetic approach was first outlined by Russ Lande and Steve Arnold [2]. Let z1, z2, . . . , zn be the phenotype of each character that we are studying. We’l...
