Error threshold in finite populations
We extend the deterministic population genetics formulation of the quasispecies model [Phys. Rev. E 54, 4048 (1996)] to finite populations in order to investigate analytically the dependence of the error threshold on the population size. In particular, we find that for large populations the replication accuracy at the threshold increases linearly with the reciprocal of the population size. More...
متن کاملLanguage dynamics in finite populations.
Any mechanism of language acquisition can only learn a restricted set of grammars. The human brain contains a mechanism for language acquisition which can learn a restricted set of grammars. The theory of this restricted set is universal grammar (UG). UG has to be sufficiently specific to induce linguistic coherence in a population. This phenomenon is known as "coherence threshold". Previously,...
متن کاملIncentive Processes in Finite Populations
We define the incentive process, a natural generalization of the Moran process incorporating evolutionary updating mechanisms corresponding to well-known evolutionary dynamics, such as the logit, projection, and best-reply dynamics. Fixation probabilities and internal stable states are given for a variety of incentives, including new closed-forms, as well as results relating fixation probabilit...
متن کاملEvolutionary processes in finite populations.
We consider the evolution of large but finite populations on arbitrary fitness landscapes. We describe the evolutionary process by a Markov-Moran process. We show that to O(1/N), the time-averaged fitness is lower for the finite population than it is for the infinite population. We also show that fluctuations in the number of individuals for a given genotype can be proportional to a power of th...
متن کاملSampling From Finite Populations
The statistical objective in survey research and in a number of other applications is generally to estimate the parameters of a finite population rather than to estimate the parameters of a statistical model. As an example, the finite population for a survey conducted to estimate the unemployment rate might be all adults aged 18 or older living in a country at a given date. If valid estimates o...
