The Generalized Turner-bradley-kirk-pruitt Equation
Several recent results pertaining to nonlinear equations of ecology are applied to a generalization of the Turner-Bradley-Kirk-Pruitt (TBKP) equation, which illustrates a variety of interesting possibilities as regards persistence and extinction. The chief novelty consists in exploiting the value set of the equation, that is, the set of values taken on by the solution as t increases from 0 to ∞...
متن کاملAn Equivalence Theorem concerning Population Growth in a Variable Environment
We give conditions under which two solutionsx andy of the Kolmogorov equation ẋ = xf(t,x) satisfy limy(t)/x(t) = 1 as t →∞. This conclusion is important for two reasons: it shows that the long-time behavior of the population is independent of the initial condition and it applies to ecological systems in which the coefficients are time dependent. Our first application is to an equation of Weissi...
متن کاملMm Algorithms for Generalized Bradley – Terry Models
The Bradley–Terry model for paired comparisons is a simple and muchstudied means to describe the probabilities of the possible outcomes when individuals are judged against one another in pairs. Among the many studies of the model in the past 75 years, numerous authors have generalized it in several directions, sometimes providing iterative algorithms for obtaining maximum likelihood estimates f...
متن کاملGeneralized Bradley-Terry Models and Multi-Class Probability Estimates
The Bradley-Terry model for obtaining individual skill from paired comparisons has been popular in many areas. In machine learning, this model is related to multi-class probability estimates by coupling all pairwise classification results. Error correcting output codes (ECOC) are a general framework to decompose a multi-class problem to several binary problems. To obtain probability estimates u...
متن کاملEfficient Bayesian Inference for Generalized Bradley-Terry Models
The Bradley-Terry model is a popular approach to describe probabilities of the possible outcomes when elements of a set are repeatedly compared with one another in pairs. It has found many applications including animal behaviour, chess ranking and multiclass classification. Numerous extensions of the basic model have also been proposed in the literature including models with ties, multiple comp...
