Computer simulations of complex population genetic models are an essential tool for making sense of the large-scale datasets of multiple genome sequences from a single species that are becoming increasingly available. A widely used approach…
Classical models of aphid population dynamics are unable to explain multi-peak patterns in field populations. We consider the variable carrying capacity model (VCM), which can generate such complex multi-peak dynamics, but is also…
Features of the CRISPR-Cas system, in which bacteria integrate small segments of phage genome (spacers) into their DNA to neutralize future attacks, suggest that its effect is not limited to individual bacteria but may control the fate and…
The study of density-dependent stochastic population processes is important from a historical perspective as well as from the perspective of a number of existing and emerging applications today. In more recent applications of these…
The adaptive probability $P_{\text{\tiny{adp}}}$ formalized in Adapt-$P$ is developed based on the remaining number of SNs $\zeta$ and optimal clustering $\kappa_{\text{\tiny{max}}}$, yet $P_{\text{\tiny{adp}}}$ does not implement the…
This paper explores an idealized dynamic population sizing strategy for solving additive decomposable problems of uniform scale. The method is designed on top of the foundations of existing population sizing theory for this class of…
In this paper, we revisit the Power Curves in ANOVA Simultaneous Component Analysis (ASCA) based on permutation testing, and introduce the Population Curves derived from population parameters describing the relative effect among factors and…
Model predictive control (MPC) is an optimal control method that predicts the future states of the system being controlled and estimates the optimal control inputs that drive the predicted states to the required reference. The computations…
Reliable probabilities are critical in high-risk applications, yet common calibration criteria (confidence, class-wise) are only necessary for full distributional calibration, and post-hoc methods often lack distribution-free guarantees. We…
Sample-based learning model predictive control (LMPC) strategies have recently attracted attention due to their desirable theoretical properties and their good empirical performance on robotic tasks. However, prior analysis of LMPC…
Tuning the step size of stochastic gradient descent is tedious and error prone. This has motivated the development of methods that automatically adapt the step size using readily available information. In this paper, we consider the family…
This paper presents an extremum seeking control algorithm with an adaptive step-size that adjusts the aggressiveness of the controller based on the quality of the gradient estimate. The adaptive step-size ensures that the integral-action…
Self-adjustment of parameters can significantly improve the performance of evolutionary algorithms. A notable example is the $(1+(\lambda,\lambda))$ genetic algorithm, where the adaptation of the population size helps to achieve the linear…
We study a test-based population size adaptation (TBPSA) method, inspired from population control, in the noise-free multimodal case. In the noisy setting, TBPSA usually recommends, at the end of the run, the center of the Gaussian as an…
Stability Selection was recently introduced by Meinshausen and Buhlmann (2010) as a very general technique designed to improve the performance of a variable selection algorithm. It is based on aggregating the results of applying a selection…
Population size estimation based on the capture-recapture experiment is an interesting problem in various fields including epidemiology, criminology, demography, etc. In many real-life scenarios, there exists inherent heterogeneity among…
Capacitated spatial clustering, a type of unsupervised machine learning method, is often used to tackle problems in compressing, classifying, logistic optimization and infrastructure optimization. Depending on the application at hand, a…
Evolutionary computing (EC) is widely used in dealing with combinatorial optimization problems (COP). Traditional EC methods can only solve a single task in a single run, while real-life scenarios often need to solve multiple COPs…
Controlled branching processes are stochastic growth population models in which the number of individuals with reproductive capacity in each generation is controlled by a random control function. The purpose of this work is to examine the…
We introduce a new approach to variable selection, called Predictive Correlation Screening, for predictor design. Predictive Correlation Screening (PCS) implements false positive control on the selected variables, is well suited to small…
