Abstract Plankton play a key role in marine food webs by producing and transferring organic matter and energy to higher trophic levels. To define the trophic structure and interactions within the planktonic communities in the Gulf of Naples, we determined carbon and nitrogen stable isotope ratios in particulate organic matter (POM, <20 μm ...

Fractional derivative in continuous-time Markov processes and applications to epidemics in networks
Continuous-time Markov processes are governed by the Chapman-Kolmogorov differential equation. We show that replacing the standard time derivative of the governing equation with a Caputo fractional derivative of order ...

DQN‐Guided Subset‐Induced OCSVM Kernel Approximation for Imbalanced Anomaly Detection
Anomaly detection under limited normal data remains a fundamental challenge due to severe class imbalance and scarcity of anomalies. We propose a novel framework that reformulates support vector selection in One‐Class SVM as a sequential decision‐making problem.

Credit Risk Assessment Using Fuzzy Inhomogeneous Markov Chains Within a Fuzzy Market
In the present study, we model the migration process and the changes in the market environment. The migration process is being modeled as an F-inhomogeneous semi-Markov process with fuzzy states.

Estimating crippling loss from hunting with multistate models: a case study on northern bobwhites
Hunting as a recreational pursuit provides an important ecosystem service worldwide. Harvest management plays a vital role in regulating wildlife take to ensure long‐term population sustainability and meet value‐based objectives (e.g. hunter satisfaction). However, managers rarely have complete control or observability of harvest mortality.

ABSTRACT In recent years, the widespread application of deep reinforcement learning (DRL) in autonomous systems has highlighted the importance of achieving high sample efficiency under sparse reward conditions. To improve sample efficiency in sparse reward environments, this paper proposes a reinforcement learning framework built upon the Soft Actor ...

Alternative seed trait strategies are linked to a trade‐off between spatial and temporal dispersal
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Seed dispersal allows plants to seek favourable conditions or spread the risk of unfavourable conditions through space and time. While theory predicts a trade‐off between spatial and temporal dispersal, empirical tests have been stymied by the difficulty of measuring ...
