Environmental conditions play an important role in conceptual studies of prebiotically relevant chem. reactions that could have led to functional biomols. The necessary source compds. are likely to have been present in dil. soln., raising the question of h ...
Artificial evolution of computer software (evolutionary neural networks, genetic programming, evolutionary fuzzy systems, etc.) has been shown to generate software that in many cases is more performant than that designed by engineers. Evolved software perf ...
Methodologies developed for the analysis, improvement and optimization of energy systems should take into account not only energy use (exergy consumption) and financial resources expended (economics), but the scarcity both present and future of all resourc ...

The report deals with a first application of Support Vector Machines to the environmental spatial data classification. The simplest problem of classification is considered: using original data develop a model for the classification of the regions to be bel ...
Thirty years of recoveries in East Antarctica have led to significant understanding of the regional characteristics associated with meteorite stranding surfaces. In Antarctica these sites are characterized by patches of snow-free blue ice at high altitude ...
Testate amoebae (Protozoa) living in Sphagnum peatlands are important environmental and paleoecological indicators. The distribution of these animals is closely related to soil moisture variables. This study examines the ecology of sphagnicolous testate am ...
In this paper an evolutionary method consisting of encoding a set of local adaptation rules that synapses obey while a robot freely moves in the environment is compared to standard evolution of fixed-weight control networks. The results show ha evolutionar ...
Vertebrate limbs are an amazing example of successful adaptation to various environmental conditions. In higher vertebrates, forelimbs help to fly, swim, walk, dig or grasp, yet their basic structure (the sequence and spatial arrangement of bony elements) ...
The scope of this paper is to provide an exptl. and modeling contribution on the role of suspended lower tropospheric particles to the UV spectral irradiance reaching the ground in urban environments. The UV spectral irradiance was measured with a UV spect ...
