Ancient protein analysis provides clues to human life and diseases from ancient times. Here, we performed shotgun proteomics of human archeological bones for the first time, using rib bones from the Hitotsubashi site (AD 1657-1683) in Tokyo, called Edo in ancient times. The output data obtained were analysed using Gene Ontology and label-free quantification. We detected leucocyte-derived protei...

Both Evolutionary Dynamic Optimization (EDO) methods and Reinforcement Learning (RL) methods tackle forms of Sequential Decision Making Problems (SDMPs), yet with different key assumptions. In this paper, we combine the strength of both EDO methods and RL methods to develop a new algorithm for SDMPs. Assuming that the environmental state is observable and that a computational model of the rewar...
