Microbial adaptive evolution [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Industrial Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2021
Abstract Bacterial species can adapt to significant changes in their environment by mutation followed by selection, a phenomenon known as “adaptive evolution.” With the development of bioinformatics and genetic engineering, research on adaptive evolution has progressed rapidly, as have applications of the process.

Evolution by Adapting Surrogates [PDF]

open access: yesEvolutionary Computation, 2013
To deal with complex optimization problems plagued with computationally expensive fitness functions, the use of surrogates to replace the original functions within the evolutionary framework is becoming a common practice. However, the appropriate datacentric approximation methodology to use for the construction of surrogate model would depend largely ...

Adaptive Inflationary Differential Evolution [PDF]

open access: yes2014 IEEE Congress on Evolutionary Computation (CEC), 2014
In this paper, an adaptive version of Inflationary Differential Evolution is presented and tested on a set of real case problems taken from the CEC2011 competition on realworld applications. Inflationary Differential Evolution extends standard Differential Evolution with both local and global restart procedures. The proposed adaptive algorithm utilizes

Adaptive significance of the prolonged diapause in the western Mediterranean lycaenid butterfly Tomares ballus (Lepidoptera: Lycaenidae)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2017
Diapause is a common dormancy strategy exhibited by many species of invertebrates and insects to temporarily avoid seasonally recurring unfavourable conditions for their development, most usually in winter.

Quantification of climate change impact on dam failure risk under hydrological scenarios: a case study from a Spanish dam [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2019
Dam safety is increasingly subjected to the influence of climate change. Its impacts must be assessed through the integration of the various effects acting on each aspect, considering their interdependencies, rather than just a simple accumulation of ...

Neural network controller against environment: A coevolutive approach to generalize robot navigation behavior [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
In this paper, a new coevolutive method, called Uniform Coevolution, is introduced to learn weights of a neural network controller in autonomous robots.

Predicting adaptive evolution [PDF]

open access: yesNature Reviews Genetics, 2001
Phylogenetic trees reconstruct past evolution and can provide evidence of past evolutionary pressure on genes and on individual codons. In addition to tracing past evolutionary events, molecular phylogenetics might also be used to predict future evolution.

Adaptive Distributed Differential Evolution

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Cybernetics, 2020
Due to the increasing complexity of optimization problems, distributed differential evolution (DDE) has become a promising approach for global optimization. However, similar to the centralized algorithms, DDE also faces the difficulty of strategies' selection and parameters' setting.

Adaptability and evolution [PDF]

open access: yesInterface Focus, 2017
The capacity of organisms to respond in their own lifetimes to new challenges in their environments probably appeared early in biological evolution. At present few studies have shown how such adaptability could influence the inherited characteristics of an organism's descendants.

Coevolutive adaptation of fitness landscape for solving the testing problem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
IEEE International Conference on Systems, Man, and Cybernetics. Nashville, TN, 8-11 October 2000A general framework, called Uniform Coevolution, is introduced to overcome the testing problem in evolutionary computation methods. This framework is based on
