Cálculo de probabilidades en el análisis de perfiles genéticos compatibles.

Miguel Sánchez García, Pedro Cuesta Alvaro (2000)

Qüestiió

Un hecho delictivo ha sido cometido por una o más personas. Para descubrir el número de presuntos delincuentes, se determina el perfil genético de la evidencia forense encontrada en el lugar del delito, mediante el estudio de marcadores de tipo STR. En el presente artículo se desarrollan diversos algoritmos. En el primero se considera la probabilidad de que n personas elegidas aleatoriamente de la población de referencia contengan un perfil genético compatible, en el segundo se calcula la evidencia...

Canonical non-symmetrical correspondence analysis: an alternative in constrained ordination.

Priscila Willems, M. Purificación Galindo Villardon (2008)

SORT

Canonical non-symmetrical correspondence analysis is developed as an alternative method for constrained ordination, relating external information (e.g., environmental variables) with ecological data, considering species abundance as dependant on sites. Ordination axes are restricted to be linear combinations of the environmental variables, based on the information of the most abundant species. This extension and its associated unconstrained ordination method are terms of a global model that permits...

Cell Modelling of Hematopoiesis

N. Bessonov, L. Pujo-Menjouet, V. Volpert (2010)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

In this work, we introduce a new software created to study hematopoiesis at the cell population level with the individually based approach. It can be used as an interface between theoretical works on population dynamics and experimental observations. We show that this software can be useful to study some features of normal hematopoiesis as well as some blood diseases such as myelogenous leukemia. It is also possible to simulate cell communication and the formation of cell colonies in the bone marrow. ...

Codings and operators in two genetic algorithms for the leaf-constrained minimum spanning tree problem

Bryant Julstrom (2004)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

The features of an evolutionary algorithm that most determine its performance are the coding by which its chromosomes represent candidate solutions to its target problem and the operators that act on that coding. Also, when a problem involves constraints, a coding that represents only valid solutions and operators that preserve that validity represent a smaller search space and result in a more effective search. Two genetic algorithms for the leaf-constrained minimum spanning tree problem illustrate...

Comparison of Perron and Floquet Eigenvalues in Age Structured Cell Division Cycle Models

J. Clairambault, S. Gaubert, Th. Lepoutre (2009)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

We study the growth rate of a cell population that follows an age-structured PDE with time-periodic coefficients. Our motivation comes from the comparison between experimental tumor growth curves in mice endowed with intact or disrupted circadian clocks, known to exert their influence on the cell division cycle. We compare the growth rate of the model controlled by a time-periodic control on its coefficients with the growth rate of stationary models of the same nature, but with averaged coefficients....

Competition of Species with Intra-Specific Competition

N. Apreutesei, A. Ducrot, V. Volpert (2008)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

Intra-specific competition in population dynamics can be described by integro-differential equations where the integral term corresponds to nonlocal consumption of resources by individuals of the same population. Already the single integro-differential equation can show the emergence of nonhomogeneous in space stationary structures and can be used to model the process of speciation, in particular, the emergence of biological species during evolution [S. Genieys et al., Math. Model. Nat. Phenom....

Competitive Exclusion in a Discrete Stage-Structured Two Species Model

A. S. Ackleh, P. Zhang (2009)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

We develop a stage-structured model that describes the dynamics of two competing species each of which have sexual and clonal reproduction. This is typical of many plants including irises. We first analyze the dynamical behavior of a single species model. We show that when the inherent net reproductive number is smaller than one then the population will go to extinction and if it is larger than one then an interior equilibrium exists and it is globally asymptotically stable. Then we analyze...

Concentration in the Nonlocal Fisher Equation: the Hamilton-Jacobi Limit

Benoît Perthame, Stephane Génieys (2010)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

The nonlocal Fisher equation has been proposed as a simple model exhibiting Turing instability and the interpretation refers to adaptive evolution. By analogy with other formalisms used in adaptive dynamics, it is expected that concentration phenomena (like convergence to a sum of Dirac masses) will happen in the limit of small mutations. In the present work we study this asymptotics by using a change of variables that leads to a constrained Hamilton-Jacobi equation. We prove the convergence analytically...
