The ability to answer prediction questions is crucial to reasoning about physical systems. A prediction question poses a hypothetical scenario and asks for the resulting behavior ...
The rate of speciation is in most mammals an order of magnitude faster than in most other vertebrates. It is faster still in the social mammals. The apparent association between c...
We present quantitative models for the selection pressure of cellular evolutionary algorithms structured in two dimensional regular lattices. We derive models based on probabilisti...

Abstract. A well-known result by Stein shows that regularized estimators with small bias often yield better estimates than unbiased estimators. In this paper, we adapt this spirit ...
We consider multi-period portfolio selection problems for a decision maker with a specified utility function when the variance of security returns is described by a discrete time ...
