Amazing geometry of genetic space or are genetic algorithms convergent?
There is no proof yet of convergence of Genetic Algorithms. We do not supply it too. Instead, we present some thoughts and arguments to convince the Reader, that Genetic Algorithms are essentially bound for success. For this purpose, we consider only the crossover operators, singleor multiple-point, together with selection procedure. We also give a proof that the soft selection is superior to o...

Melanie Mitchell SFI WORKING PAPER: 2010-09-021 SFI Working Papers contain accounts of scientific work of the author(s) and do not necessarily represent the views of the Santa Fe Institute. We accept papers intended for publication in peer-reviewed journals or proceedings volumes, but not papers that have already appeared in print. Except for papers by our external faculty, papers must be based...
متن کاملComputation by Biological Systems
What are biological systems and how do they work? Does there exist a physical explanation that captures both their complexity and their simplicity? Biological systems are, after all, just another type of physical system. It has the distinction that it is “alive” whatever this means. Otherwise, biological systems consume mass and energy like any other endothermic process requiring these to opera...
متن کاملThe Amazing Osteocyte
The last decade has provided a virtual explosion of data on the molecular biology and function of osteocytes. Far from being the "passive placeholder in bone," this cell has been found to have numerous functions, such as acting as an orchestrator of bone remodeling through regulation of both osteoclast and osteoblast activity and also functioning as an endocrine cell. The osteocyte is a source ...
متن کاملAmazing DPs
Data and Previous Literature: Elliott (1971) points out that DPs introduced by emotive factive predicates (cf. (1)) have exclamative interpretations. Grimshaw (1979) establishes a parallelism between DPs that are introduced by predicates that also take interrogative clauses (Concealed Questions CQs, (2)) and DPs that are introduced by predicates that also take exclamative clauses (cf. (2b)); sh...
