Area-restricted search (ARS) is a foraging strategy used by many animals to locate resources. The behavior is characterized by a time-dependent reduction in turning frequency after the last resource encounter. This maximizes the time spent in areas in which resources are abundant and extends the search to a larger area when resources become scarce. We demonstrate that dopaminergic and glutamate...

Axon specification is a critical step in neuronal development, and the function of glial cells in this process is not fully understood. Here, we show that C. elegans GLR glial cells regulate axon specification of their nearby GABAergic RME neurons through GLR-RME gap junctions. Disruption of GLR-RME gap junctions causes misaccumulation of axonal markers in non-axonal neurites of RME neurons and...

We tested the model that neurons and epithelial cells use a shared mechanism for polarized protein sorting by comparing the pathways for localizing basolateral and postsynaptic proteins in C. elegans. GLR-1 glutamate receptors are localized to postsynaptic elements of central synapses and, when ectopically expressed, to basolateral membranes of epithelial cells. Proper localization of GLR-1 in ...

We discuss generalisations of bottom up parsing, emphasising the relative costs for real programming languages. Our goal is to provide a roadmap of the available approaches in terms of their space and time performance for programming language applications, focusing mainly on GLR style algorithms. It is well known that the original Tomita GLR algorithm fails to terminate on hidden left recursion...

MOTIVATION Microarray technology emerges as a powerful tool in life science. One major application of microarray technology is to identify differentially expressed genes under various conditions. Currently, the statistical methods to analyze microarray data are generally unsatisfactory, mainly due to the lack of understanding of the distribution and error structure of microarray data. RESULTS...

This paper presents an adaptive Generalized Likelihood Ratio (GLR) test for multiple Faults Detection and Isolation (FDI) in stochastic linear dynamic systems. Based on the work of Willsky and Jones (1976), we propose a modified generalized likelihood ratio test, allowing detection, isolation and estimation of multiple sequential faults. Our contribution aims to maximise the good decision rate ...

Since the first approach [Wright and Wrigley 1991]of combining a probabilistic method into the GLR technique was published, Some probabilistic GLR parsers also have been implemented in which probabilities are assigned to actions of LR parsing tables by using lookaheads or LR states as simple context information of [Briscoe and Carroll 1993], [Kentaro et al. 1998], and [Ruland, 2000] which does ...

In this paper we formulate a general class of problems for detecting subspace signals in subspace interference and broadband noise. We derive the generalized likelihood ratio (GLR) for each problem in the class. We then establish the invariances for the GLR and argue that these are the natural invariances for the problem. In each case, the GLR is a maximal invariant statistic, and the distribut...
