Theory of Evolutionary Computation [PDF]
Algorithmica, 2010 Evolutionary algorithms are general-purpose randomized search heuristics. They have been successfully applied to many different kinds of search and optimization problems. They are popular in practice since they are easy to implement and easy to apply, and yet often find good solutions in reasonable time.

The Evolutionary Theory of Depression. [PDF]
Med Sci Monit, 2017 The evolutionary success of Homo sapiens is attributed to the following two factors: the upright body posture (which freed our hands and allowed unconstrained operation of various objects) and intensive development of the frontal lobes, mainly the Broca area of the brain.

Evolutionary game theory [PDF]
European Economic Review, 1987 Game Theory has been developed as a theory of rational behavior in interpersonal conflict situations, with economics and the other social sciences being the intended fields of application. Since the theory is based on an idealized picture of human rationality, it is by no means obvious that it can be applied to situations in which the players cannot be

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021 The global rise of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) phenotypes is an exemplar for rapid evolutionary response. Resistance arises as a consequence of humanity’s widespread and largely indiscriminate use of antimicrobial compounds.

Evolutionary Human Sciences, 2021 Smokeless tobacco use among Indian women is increasing despite prevention efforts. Evolutionary theories suggest that reproductive-aged women should be more concerned about immediate threats to reproduction than threats to survival occurring late in life.

New Journal of Physics, 2015 The modeling of evolutionary game dynamics in finite populations requires microscopic processes that determine how strategies spread. The exact details of these processes are often chosen without much further consideration. Different types of microscopic

Modeling treatment-dependent glioma growth including a dormant tumor cell subpopulation
BMC Cancer, 2018 Background Tumors comprise a variety of specialized cell phenotypes adapted to different ecological niches that massively influence the tumor growth and its response to treatment.

How much does the unguarded X contribute to sex differences in life span?
Evolution Letters, 2022 Females and males often have markedly different mortality rates and life spans, but it is unclear why these forms of sexual dimorphism evolve. The unguarded X hypothesis contends that dimorphic life spans arise from sex differences in X or Z chromosome ...

Dynamical trade-offs arise from antagonistic coevolution and decrease intraspecific diversity
Nature Communications, 2017 How a trait evolves depends on the shape of its fitness trade-off. Here, Huang et al. demonstrate evolution of trade-off shape in an experimental predator-prey system and develop a mathematical model of trait evolution when the underlying trade-off can ...

Revisiting evolutionary game theory [PDF]
52nd IEEE Conference on Decision and Control, 2013 Evolutionary game theory is a relatively young mathematical theory that aims to formalize in mathematical terms evolution models in biology. In recent years this paradigm has penetrated more and more into other areas such as the linguistics, economics and engineering.
