The VC-dimension of axis-parallel boxes on the Torus

open access: yesJournal of Complexity, 2022
We show in this paper that the VC-dimension of the family of $d$-dimensional axis-parallel boxes and cubes on the $d$-dimensional torus are both asymptotically $d \log_2(d)$. This is especially surprising as the VC-dimension usually grows linearly with $d$ in similar settings.

The unpredictably eruptive dynamics of spruce budworm populations in eastern Canada

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
We examine historical population data for spruce budworm from several locations through the period 1930–1997, and use density‐dependent recruitment curves to test whether the pattern of population growth over time is more consistent with Royama's (1984; Ecological Monographs 54:429–462) linear R(t) model of harmonic oscillation at Green River New ...

On the box dimensions of graphs of typical continuous functions [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Mathematical Analysis and Applications, 2012
AbstractLet X⊆R be a bounded set; we emphasize that we are not assuming that X is compact or Borel. We prove that for a typical (in the sense of Baire) uniformly continuous function f on X, the lower box dimension of the graph of f is as small as possible and the upper box dimension of the graph of f is as big as possible. We also prove a local version

Network topology drives population temporal variability in experimental habitat networks

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
Habitat patches connected by dispersal pathways form habitat networks. We explored how network topology affects population outcomes in laboratory experiments using a model species (Daphnia carinata). Central habitat nodes in complex lattice networks exhibited lower temporal variability in population sizes, suggesting they support more stable ...

occumb: An R package for site occupancy modeling of eDNA metabarcoding data

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
This study introduces a new R package, occumb, for the convenient application of site occupancy modeling using environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding data. We outline a data analysis workflow, including data setup, model fitting, model assessment, and comparison of potential study settings based on model predictions, all of which can be performed using

On a conjecture regarding the upper graph box dimension of bounded subsets of the real line

open access: yes, 2012
Let X \subset R be a bounded set; we introduce a formula that calculates the upper graph box dimension of X (i.e.the supremum of the upper box dimension of the graph over all uniformly continuous functions defined on X).

Between Droughts and Floods: The Seasonal Response of Freshwater Snails in Artificial Reservoirs in the Brazilian Semiarid Region

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
We investigate the seasonal dynamics of two freshwater snails, Biomphalaria straminea and Melanoides tuberculata, in artificial reservoirs of the Brazilian semiarid region. Despite regulated hydrology, B. straminea exhibited strong seasonal fluctuations associated with dry periods, while M. tuberculata maintained stable populations throughout the year,

An Improve Differential Box Counting Method to Estimate Fractal Dimension [PDF]

open access: yesEngineering and Technology Journal, 2015
The mathematical concept that used to measure the complexity of the fractal sets is known as fractal dimension. It is considered as a global feature for fractal images.

Estimation of Citarum Watershed Boundary’s Length Based on Fractal’s Power Law by the Modified Box-Counting Dimension Algorithm

open access: yesMathematics, 2023
This research aimed to estimate the length of the Citarum watershed boundary because the data are still unknown. We used the concept of fractal’s power law and its relation to the length of an object, which is still not described in other research.
