چکیده
Robust behavioral control programs for a simulated 2d vehicle can be constructed by artificial evolution. Corridor following serves here as an example of a behavior to be obtained through evolution. A controller’s fitness is judged by its ability to steer its vehicle along a collision free path through a simple corridor environment. The controller’s inputs are noisy range sensors and its output is a noisy steering mechanism. Evolution determines the quantity and placement of sensors. Noise in fitness tests discourages brittle strategies and leads to the evolution of robust, noise-tolerant controllers. Genetic Programming is used to model evolution, the controllers are represented as deterministic computer programs.

Correlation of Copper and Zinc in Spontaneous Abortions
Objective Trace metals are required in minute amounts for normal human growth and physiological function of the body and might play a vital role in the pregnancy and outcome. The study was conducted to assess the role of trace metals zinc (Zn) and copper (Cu) among women with history of spontaneous abortion (SAb Cases) with respect to women without such history (Controls).

متن کاملPhytoremediation of hydrocarbon contaminants in subantarctic soils: an effective management option.
Accidental fuel spills on world heritage subantarctic Macquarie Island have caused considerable contamination. Due to the island's high latitude position, its climate, and its fragile ecosystem, traditional methods of remediation are unsuitable for on-site clean up. We investigated the tolerance of a subantarctic native tussock grass, Poa foliosa (Hook. f.), to Special Antarctic Blend (SAB) die...
متن کاملComparison of Semiconducting Behavior and Optical Properties of Oxyfluoride Glasses of SiO2-Al2O3-BaF2 and SiO2-Al2O3-CaF2 Systems
Amorphous semiconductors are materials with a brilliant prospect for a wide range of optical applications like solar cells, optical sensors, optical devices, and memories. The purpose of the present research was to study the semiconducting optical properties of SiO2-Al2O3-CaF2 and SiO2-Al2O3-BaF2 oxyfluoride...
متن کاملExposure to organic solvents and adverse pregnancy outcome.
In a large case-control study (n = 1,926) of spontaneous abortion (SAB), exposure to solvents was ascertained by a telephone interview that asked about occupational use of 18 specific solvents or products, as well as an open-ended "other" solvent category. The adjusted odds ratio for use of any solvent was 1.1 (0.8, 1.5). Solvents for which at least a doubled crude risk of SAB was found include...
