Draft genome of tule elk

This paper presents the first draft genome of the tule elk (Cervus elaphus ), a subspecies native to California that underwent an extreme nannodes genetic bottleneck in the late 1800s. The genome was generated from Illumina HiSeq 3000 whole genome sequencing of four individuals, resulting in the assembly of 2.395 billion base pairs (Gbp) over 602,862 contigs over 500 bp and N50 = 6,885 bp.

Automatic ei

This paper describes a general approach for automatically programming a behavior-based robot. New behaviors are learned by trial and error using a performance feedback function as reinforcement. Two algorithms for behavior learning are described that combine techniques for propagating reinforcement values temporally across actions and spatially across states. A behavior-based robot called OBELI...

EI / c from the lattice *

Results from a lattice calculation of the matrix elements of the weak Hamiltonian which determine c’ are presented. They suggest a smaller value of 8/c than previously estimated.
