Genetic Programming Theory and Practice VI (Genetic and Evolutionary Computation)

Springer, 2008

Genetic Programming Theory and Practice VI was developed from the sixth workshop at the University of Michigan’s Center for the Study of Complex Systems to facilitate the exchange of ideas and information related to the rapidly advancing field of Genetic Programming (GP). Contributions from the foremost international...

Viruses and Nanotechnology (Current Topics in Microbiology and Immunology)

Springer, 2008

Viral nanoparticles (VNPs) serve as excellent nanobuilding blocks for materials design and fabrication. The main advantages are their nanometer-range size, the propensity to self-assemble into monodisperse nanoparticles of discrete shape and size, the high degree of symmetry and polyvalency, the relative ease of producing large quantities, the...

Fodder Crops and Amenity Grasses (Handbook of Plant Breeding)

Springer, 2009

The main role of grasses, clovers and alfalfa in temperate agriculture is still to provide forage for ruminant animals but, in the last decades, the importance of amenity grasses increased markedly and, in the near future, new developments in the areas of energy and biomass use can be envisaged. Fodder Crops and Amenity Grasses, fifth volume in...

Intelligent Control: A Hybrid Approach Based on Fuzzy Logic, Neural Networks and Genetic Algorithms (Studies in Computational Intelligence)

Springer, 2013

Intelligent Control considers non-traditional modelling and control approaches to nonlinear systems. Fuzzy logic, neural networks and evolutionary computing techniques are the main tools used. The book presents a modular switching fuzzy logic controller where a PD-type fuzzy controller is executed first followed by a PI-type...

Individualized In-Vitro Fertilization (Delivering Precision Fertility Treatment)

Cambridge University Press, 2021

The increasing understanding of individual differences in response to in-vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment, resulting from genetic and ethnical differences, has increased the potential for individualized treatment for patients, resulting in improved pregnancy and live-birth outcomes. This illustrated book summarizes, and provides updates on,...

Multi-Objective Swarm Intelligent Systems: Theory & Experiences (Studies in Computational Intelligence)

Springer, 2009

Recently, a new class of heuristic techniques, the swarm intelligence has emerged. In this context, more recently, biologists and computer scientists in the field of “artificial life” have been turning to insects for ideas that can be used for heuristics. Many aspects of the collective activities of social insects,...

Between the Lines of Genetic Code: Genetic Interactions in Understanding Disease and Complex Phenotypes

Academic Press, 2013

Between the Lines of Genetic Code lays out methodologies and tools for the measurement and evaluation of gene-gene and gene-environment studies and gives perspective on the future of this discipline. The book begins by defining terms for interaction studies, describing methodologies, and critically assessing the viability of current...

Lost Sex: The Evolutionary Biology of Parthenogenesis

Springer, 2009

Sex is the queen of problems in evolutionary biology. Generations of researchers have investigated one of the last remaining evolutionary paradoxes: why sex exists at all. Given that sexual reproduction is costly from an evolutionary point of view, one could wonder why not all animals and plants reproduce asexually. Dozens of contemporary...

Dictionary of Developmental Biology and Embryology

John Wiley & Sons, 2012

A newly revised edition of the standard reference for the field today—updated with new terms, major discoveries, significant scientists, and illustrations

Developmental biology is the study of the mechanisms of development, differentiation, and growth in animals and plants at the molecular, cellular, and genetic...

Cancer Gene Therapy (Contemporary Cancer Research)

Humana Press, 2004

A complete introduction and guide to the latest developments in cancer gene therapy-from bench to bedside. The authors comprehensively review the anticancer genes and gene delivery methods currently available for cancer gene therapy, including the transfer of genetic material into the cancer cells, stimulation of the immune system to...

Assembly Line Design: The Balancing of Mixed-Model Hybrid Assembly Lines with Genetic Algorithms (Springer Series in Advanced Manufacturing)

Springer, 2005

Efficient assembly line design is a problem of considerable industrial importance. Assembly Line Design will be bought by technical personnel working in design, planning and production departments in industry as well as managers in industry who want to learn more about concurrent engineering. This book will also be purchased...

System Modeling in Cellular Biology: From Concepts to Nuts and Bolts

MIT Press, 2006

Biology is the study of self-replicating chemical processes. Biology is the study of
systems accurately transmitting a genetic blueprint. Biology is the study of complex
adaptive reproducing systems.

What is systems biology if all definitions of biology implicitly or explicitly refer to
the study of a whole object, whether...
