Approximate Bayesian Inference by Adaptive Quantization of the Hypothesis Space
We introduce a method for making approximate Bayesian inference based on quantizing the hypothesis space and repartitioning it as observations become available. The method relies on approximating an optimal inference by using a probability distribution for quantized intervals of the unknown quantity, and by adjusting the intervals so as to obtain higher resolution in regions of higher probabili...
متن کاملRobust Host Mobility Supports for Adaptive
Service proxy framework is a framework for constructing adaptive mobile applications based on the client-mediator-server architecture. The goal of our framework is to provide an infrastructure for building adaptive mobile applications. Using the service proxy framework, an application can change its behavior when the operational environment is changed dynamically. This paper presents host mobil...
متن کاملHost Specificity of Cuscuta reflexa Roxb. in the Manas Biosphere Reserve, Indo-Burma Hotspot
The dodder plant Cuscuta reflexa Roxb. is an angiospermic leafless parasitic plant belonging to the family Cuscutaceae is abundantly found colonizing certain plant species in the premises of Manas Biosphere Reserve (MBR) and nearby area. Ten (10) angiospermic host plants in total of the above parasite were recognized. Based on the field inspection most of the numbers of patches were recorded in...
متن کاملHost–parasite fluctuating selection in the absence of specificity
Fluctuating selection driven by coevolution between hosts and parasites is important for the generation of host and parasite diversity across space and time. Theory has focused primarily on infection genetics, with highly specific 'matching-allele' frameworks more likely to generate fluctuating selection dynamics (FSD) than 'gene-for-gene' (generalist-specialist) frameworks. However, the enviro...
متن کاملConcepts in Insect Host-Plant Selection Behavior and Their Application to Host Specificity Testing
Testing the host specificity of potential agents is an important part of biocontrol methodology. An understanding of the behavioral processes involved in selection of a host plant can be used to improve the accuracy of host specificity testing by biocontrol practitioners and others interested in predicting field host use. These behavioral processes include the sequential nature of host selectio...
