Multiple Point Competition.

Competition and Multiple Cause Models

If different causes can interact on any occasion to generate a set of patterns, then systems modeling the generation have to model the interaction too. We discuss a way of combining multiple causes that is based on the Integrated Segmentation and Recognition architecture of Keeler et al. (1991). It is more cooperative than the scheme embodied in the mixture of experts architecture, which insist...

Multiple point of self-transverse immesions of certain manifolds

In this paper we will determine the multiple point manifolds of certain self-transverse immersions in Euclidean spaces. Following the triple points, these immersions have a double point self-intersection set which is the image of an immersion of a smooth 5-dimensional manifold, cobordant to Dold manifold $V^5$ or a boundary. We will show there is an immersion of $S^7times P^2$ in $mathbb{R}^{1...

Facies Modeling of Heterogeneous Carbonates Reservoirs by Multiple Point Geostatistics

Facies modeling is an essential part of reservoir characterization. The connectivity of facies model is very critical for the dynamic modeling of reservoirs. Carbonate reservoirs are so heterogeneous that variogram-based methods like sequential indicator simulation are not very useful for facies modeling. In this paper, multiple point geostatistics (MPS) is used for facies modeling in one of th...

Multiple mating, sperm competition and meiotic drive

Most discussions of ‘sperm competition’ have ignored the potential for competition among the different sperm genotypes present in the ejaculate of a single male. Rivalry within ejaculates may limit cooperation among the members of an ejaculate when they compete with sperm produced by other males. A gene that gains an advantage in competition within an ejaculate (a segregation distorter) may inc...
