Characterisation of conditional independence structures for polymatroids using vanishing sets
summary:In this paper, we characterise and classify a list of full conditional independences via the structure of the induced set of vanishing atoms. Construction of Markov random subfield and minimal characterisation of polymatroids satisfying a MRF will also be given
Mathematical models of evolution
Ankara : The Department of Industrial Engineering and Institute of Engineering and Sciences, Bilkent Univ., 1992.Thesis (Master's) -- Bilkent University, 1992.Includes bibliographical references leaves 89-93Two categories of evolutionary models are analyzed. The first category
is the so-called autogenesis phenomenon. The emergence of self-organization,
which has been discussed previously by Csanyi and Kampis is verified. The
model is extended to an interrelated multi-level autogenesis system. Similarly,
self-organization is observed in a hierarchical order for ea.ch level. The second
category is the optimization model ol evolution. An ongoing process of
consecutive LP runs associated with random perturbation of the parameters
at each step, is designed to simulate the evolutionary mechanisms (mutations,
variations and selection) and the population dynamics of a hypothetical ecological
system. Two diihu'ent LP ajrproaches for Lotka-Volterra systems are
compared and contrastc'd. A brief history of evolution a.nd some mathematical
models that have been constructed up to date are also descrilred in the
beginning chapter.Özaktaş, HakanM.S
