SETI, Evolution and Human History Merged into a Mathematical Model
In this paper we propose a new mathematical model capable of merging Darwinian Evolution, Human History and SETI into a single mathematical scheme: (1) Darwinian Evolution over the last 3.5 billion years is defined as one particular realization of a certain stochastic process called Geometric Brownian Motion (GBM). This GBM yields the fluctuations in time of the number of species living on Eart...
متن کاملEvo-SETI: A Mathematical Tool for Cladistics, Evolution, and SETI
The discovery of new exoplanets makes us wonder where each new exoplanet stands along its way to develop life as we know it on Earth. Our Evo-SETI Theory is a mathematical way to face this problem. We describe cladistics and evolution by virtue of a few statistical equations based on lognormal probability density functions (pdf) in the time. We call b-lognormal a lognormal pdf starting at insta...
متن کاملA Mathematical Model for Operating Room Scheduling Considering Limitations on Human Resources Access and Patient Prioritization
Operating room scheduling is an important task in healthcare sector. This study proposes a Mixed Integer Nonlinear Programming (MINLP) mathematical model for the scheduling of the operating rooms. In the presented model, apart from scheduling the patients’ surgery process, shifting of the medical staff is also carried out. The innovation considered in the proposed model is aimed at prioritizing...
متن کاملWealth in Human Evolution and Human History
This chapter presents a theory of brain and life span evolution and applies it to both primates in general, and to the hominid line, in particular. To address the simultaneous effects of natural selection on the brain and on the life span, it extends the standard life history theory in biology which organizes research into the evolutionary forces shaping age-schedules of fertility and mortality...
متن کاملA model for brain life history evolution
Complex cognition and relatively large brains are distributed across various taxa, and many primarily verbal hypotheses exist to explain such diversity. Yet, mathematical approaches formalizing verbal hypotheses would help deepen the understanding of brain and cognition evolution. With this aim, we combine elements of life history and metabolic theories to formulate a metabolically explicit mat...
