Calls to understand the links between ecology and evolution have been common for
decades. Population dynamics, ie the demographic changes in populations, arise from life …

Variation among parasite strains can affect the progression of disease or the effectiveness of
treatment. What maintains parasite diversity? Here I argue that competition among parasites …

The issue of controlling values of various parameters of an evolutionary algorithm is one of
the most important and promising areas of research in evolutionary computation: it has a …

One of the central aims of ecology is to identify mechanisms that maintain biodiversity,.
Numerous theoretical models have shown that competing species can coexist if ecological …

Genetic Programming (GP) is a dynamic field of research where empirical testing plays an
important role in validating new ideas and algorithms. The ability to easily prototype new …

Evolutionary processes generating biodiversity and ecological mechanisms maintaining
biodiversity seem to be diverse themselves. Conventional explanations of biodiversity such …

Genetic programming (GP) is not a field noted for the rigor of its benchmarking. Some of its
benchmark problems are popular purely through historical contingency, and they can be …

In the ten years since the publication of Modern Soil Microbiology, the study of soil
microbiology has significantly changed, both in the understanding of the diversity and …

We present the results of a community survey regarding genetic programming benchmark
practices. Analysis shows broad consensus that improvement is needed in problem …

Gene regulatory networks are perhaps the most important organizational level in the cell
where signals from the cell state and the outside environment are integrated in terms of …
