|This paper presents a new operator called adaptive operator for the Pseudo-Bacterial Genetic Algorithm (PBGA). The PBGA was proposed by the authors as a new approach combining a genetic algorithm (GA) with a local improvement mechanism inspired by a process in bacterial genetics. The PBGA was applied for the discovery of fuzzy rules. The aim of the newly introduced adaptive operator is to impr...

BACKGROUND The ascertainment process of molecular markers amounts to disregard loci carrying alleles with low frequencies. This can result in strong biases in inferences under population genetics models if not properly taken into account by the inference algorithm. Attempting to model this censoring process in view of making inference of population structure (i.e.identifying clusters of individ...

The test cases are generated manually as well as automatically to test software product. Manual test case generation require more time and cost than automatic test case generation. Automated generated test cases decrease the time and cost of testing process. Nowadays software companies are turning towards automated test case generation. After the generation of test cases, there is need to optim...

Some issues in quantitative genetics theory, other than molecular genetic analysis and utilisation, are reviewed. These include the development of models and methods for the analysis of longitudinal data, i.e. records continued or repeated over time, such as daily milk yield within and across lactation. The problems of identifying a range of alternative models and testing their fit are discusse...
