On classification tools for genetic algorithms
2008 International Multiconference on Computer Science and Information Technology, 2008Some tools to measure convergence properties of genetic algorithms are introduced. A classification procedure is proposed for genetic algorithms based on a conjecture: the entropy and the fractal dimension of trajectories produced by them are quantities that characterize the classes of the algorithms.

The “chip” as a specific genetic tool
Biological Psychiatry, 2000DNA microarrays are powerful tools for the analysis of the organization and regulation of the brain, in both illness and health. Such messenger RNA expression methods are outgrowths of a marriage between the several genome sequencing projects and a wide variety of physical, chemical, optical, and electronic systems.

Genetic Algorithms-a Tool for OR?
Journal of the Operational Research Society, 1996Summary: Compared with other metaheuristic techniques such as simulated annealing and tabu search, research into the use of genetic algorithms for the solution of OR problems is still in its infancy. This paper provides an introduction to genetic algorithms and their use in the solution of both classical and practical operational research problems ...

On Stability and Classification Tools for Genetic Algorithms
Fundamenta Informaticae, 2009Convergence of genetic algorithms in the form of asymptotic stability requirements is discussed. Some tools to measure convergence properties of genetic algorithms are introduced. A classification procedure is proposed that is based on the following conjecture: the entropy and the fractal dimension of trajectories of genetic algorithms

Genetic Tools from Nature and the Nature of Genetic Tools
Crop Science, 2006The opportunity to apply genetics to the improvement of crops is greater now than any time in history. Agricultural advancements will depend even more on genetics in the future as we try to produce more food, while being in harmony with the environment.

Annual Review of Genetics, 1975
The introduction of a new organism into the repertoire of genetic tools is justified on the basis of its aptness for investigations of new problems, for new approaches to old problems, or for testing the relevance of principles discovered in phylo genetically distant groups. In this review many important publications must be omitted to provide for the

1984
In the past ten years several advances in biotechnology have revolutionized the way fundamental biological problems are approached. I will discuss three of these relatively recently developed disciplines in biotechnology—recombinant DNA, microchemical instrumentation, and monoclonal antibodies—and I will point out the striking synergies that arise from

Surrogate Genetics: The Use of Bacterial Hybrids as a Genetic Tool
Methods, 2000Experimental dissection of bacterial genomes requires a well-developed set of genetic tools, but many bacteria lack the essential tools required for genetic analysis. Recombination of a region of chromosomal DNA from poorly characterized donor bacteria with the chromosome of a suitable surrogate host creates a genetically malleable hybrid, providing a ...

Computational Tools for Causal Inference in Genetics
Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine, 2020The advent of large-scale, phenotypically rich, and readily accessible data provides an unprecedented opportunity for epidemiologists, statistical geneticists, bioinformaticians, and also behavioral and social scientists to investigate the causes and consequences of disease. Computational tools and resources are an integral component of such endeavors,

Transposable Bacteriophages as Genetic Tools
2017Phage Mu is the paradigm of a growing family of bacteriophages that infect a wide range of bacterial species and replicate their genome by replicative transposition. This molecular process, which is used by other mobile genetic elements to move within genomes, involves the profound rearrangement of the host genome [chromosome(s) and plasmid(s)] and can
