Gene expression programming approach to event selection in high energy physics [PDF]
Gene Expression Programming is a new evolutionary algorithm that overcomes many limitations of the more established Genetic Algorithms and Genetic Programming. Its first application to high energy physics data analysis is presented.

The genetical theory of kin selection [PDF]
AbstractNatural selection operates both directly, via the impact of a trait upon the individual’s own fitness, and indirectly, via the impact of the trait upon the fitness of the individual’s genetically related social partners. These effects are often framed in terms of Hamilton’s rule,rb − c > 0, which provides the central result of social ...

PhysicsGP: A Genetic Programming Approach to Event Selection [PDF]
We present a novel multivariate classification technique based on Genetic Programming. The technique is distinct from Genetic Algorithms and offers several advantages compared to Neural Networks and Support Vector Machines.

Genome-Wide Footprints of Pig Domestication and Selection Revealed through Massive Parallel Sequencing of Pooled DNA [PDF]
Background Artificial selection has caused rapid evolution in domesticated species. The identification of selection footprints across domesticated genomes can contribute to uncover the genetic basis of phenotypic diversity.

New cycle, same old mistakes? Overlapping vs. discrete generations in long-term recurrent selection
Background Recurrent selection is a foundational breeding method for quantitative trait improvement. It typically features rapid breeding cycles that can lead to high rates of genetic gain.

Faster, smaller, easier, and better—DNA sequencing technologies have improved by quantum leaps in the past decade. This Genetics Select highlights recent studies that demonstrate how these technological advances have greatly expanded the scope and power of human genetics, especially in the blossoming fields of personalized medicine and palaeogenetics.

Genetic Selective Abortion: Still a Matter of Choice [PDF]
Jeremy Williams has argued that if we are committed to a liberal pro-choice stance with regard to selective abortion for disability, we will be unable to justify the prohibition of sex selective abortion. Here, I apply his reasoning to selective abortion
