Local adaptation in stabilized vision
Vision Research, 1966Abstract The increment threshold for a small stimulus superimposed upon adapting spots of various diameters was measured under scotopic conditions in the peripheral retina. Confirming Westheimer (1965) , it was found that adapting spots of about 1° diameter raise the threshold more than either larger or smaller spots.

Local Adaptive Subspace Regression
Neural Processing Letters, 1998Incremental learning of sensorimotor transformations in high dimensional spaces is one of the basic prerequisites for the success of autonomous robot devices as well as biological movement systems. So far, due to sparsity of data in high dimensional spaces, learning in such settings required a significant amount of prior knowledge about the learning ...

Micro‐insurance for local adaptation
WIREs Climate Change, 2010AbstractInsurance instruments that provide economic security against droughts, floods, tropical cyclones and other weather extremes have emerged as an opportunity for developing countries in their concurrent efforts to reduce their vulnerability to weather variability and adapt to climate change. Yet, issues remain concerning the viability of insurance

Ecological genomics of local adaptation
Nature Reviews Genetics, 2013It is increasingly important to improve our understanding of the genetic basis of local adaptation because of its relevance to climate change, crop and animal production, and conservation of genetic resources. Phenotypic patterns that are generated by spatially varying selection have long been observed, and both genetic mapping and field experiments ...

A local adaptive image descriptor
New Review of Hypermedia and Multimedia, 2013The local binary pattern LBP is a robust but computationally simple approach in texture analysis. However, LBP performs poorly in the presence of noise and large illumination variation. Thus, a local adaptive image descriptor termed as LAID is introduced in this proposal.

Temporal variability and local adaptation
Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 1996Gene flow is often regarded as a constraining force because it can counteract selective forces that lead to local adaptationl. Local adaptation (adaptive deme formation) can be studied relatively easily in the context of host-parasite and plant-herbivore interactions through transplant experiment+4.

Simultaneous Local Adaptation for Different Local Properties
2019This paper proposes a method of adaptation for a problem holds local optima with different properties around them. We employed neighborhood based method into Adaptive DE:JADE with a mechanism of local adaptation simultaneously at different local optima.

Localization and adaptation of quality approaches
IEEE International Conference on Advanced Learning Technologies, 2004. Proceedings., 2004Many different approaches on quality management, quality assurance, and quality assessment have been developed in recent years. These approaches are based on varied interpretations of quality on the one hand and different aspects of education on the other hand.

Local Adaptation in Marine Invertebrates
Annual Review of Marine Science, 2011Local adaptation in the sea was regarded historically as a rare phenomenon that was limited to a handful of species with exceptionally low dispersal potential. However, a growing body of experimental studies indicates that adaptive differentiation occurs in numerous marine invertebrates in response to selection imposed by strong gradients (and more ...

Local Adaptive Extraction of References
2010The accurate extraction of scholarly reference information from scientific publications is essential for many useful applications like BIBTEX management systems or citation analysis. Automatic extraction methods suffer from the heterogeneity of reference notation, no matter wether the extraction model was handcrafted or learnt from labeled data ...
