Detecting range expansions from genetic data.
We propose a method that uses genetic data to test for the occurrence of a recent range expansion and to infer the location of the origin of the expansion. We introduce a statistic ψ (the directionality index) that detects asymmetries in the 2D allele frequency spectrum of pairs of population. These asymmetries are caused by the series of founder events that happen during an expansion and they ...
متن کاملGenetic drift and selection in many-allele range expansions
We experimentally and numerically investigate the evolutionary dynamics of four competing strains of E. coli with differing expansion velocities in radially expanding colonies. We compare experimental measurements of the average fraction, correlation functions between strains, and the relative rates of genetic domain wall annihilations and coalescences to simulations modeling the population as ...
متن کاملDetecting Grasping Opportunities in Range Data
We have investigated the problem of removing objects from a heap without having recourse to object models. As we are relying on geometric information alone, the use of range data is a natural choice. The objects are to be grasped by a two-ngered gripper and therefore the system has to see opposite patches of the object surface. To ensure this, we use two range views from opposite sides. Each of...
متن کاملDetecting Human Patterns in Laser Range Data
In this paper we present a novel method for detecting humans from laser range scans, where the core idea is to treat neither individual frames, which hold so little information that the task is impossible, nor motion patterns, as is the case with tracking methods. Rather, we map short time series of planar scans to 3D objects with time as the depth dimension; we then cluster and classify these ...
متن کاملBayesian models for detecting epistatic interactions from genetic data.
Current disease association studies are routinely conducted on a genome-wide scale, testing hundreds of thousands or millions of genetic markers. Besides detecting marginal associations of individual markers with the disease, it is also of interest to identify gene-gene and gene-environment interactions, which confer susceptibility to the disease risk. The astronomical number of possible combin...
