What Is Speciation? by B Jesse Shapiro, Jean-Baptiste Leducq, James Mallet

“…Comparative genomics showing the extent of HGT in natural populations certainly jeopardizes the relevance of vertical descent (i.e., the species tree) in speciation. Nevertheless, we conclude that species do indeed exist as clusters of genetic and ecological similarity and that speciation is driven primarily by natural selection, regardless of the balance between horizontal and vertical descent.…”

Asymptotic analysis of deep learning algorithms by Rossier, A

“…Finally, we prove that in the case of a smooth activation function, the scaling regime arises as a consequence of using gradient descent. In particular, we prove linear convergence of gradient descent to a global minimum for the training of deep residual networks. …”

Efficient linear programming for dense CRFs by Mudigonda, P, Ajanthan, T, Desmaison, A, Bunel, R, Salzmann, M, Torr, P

“…To this end, we develop a proximal minimization framework, where the dual of each proximal problem is optimized via block coordinate descent. We show that each block of variables can be efficiently optimized. …”

Deep reef ecosystems of the Western Indian Ocean: addressing the great unknown by Stefanoudis, PV, Talma, S, Samimi-Namin, K, Woodall, LC

“…<p>Indian Ocean coral reef ecosystems are some of the least explored, least funded and least protected worldwide. "First Descent: Indian Ocean" represents a series of research expeditions undertaken by Nekton between 2018-2022 in partnership with Governments in the Indian Ocean region to contribute to establishing a baseline of marine life and catalyse 30% protection by 2030. …”

Scaled three-term conjugate gradient method via Davidon-Fletcher-Powell update for unconstrained optimization by Ibrahim, Arzuka

Internalization of Appearance Ideals and Not Religiosity Indirectly Impacts the Relationship Between Acculturation and Disordered Eating Risk in South and Southeast Asian Women Liv... by Sonakshi Negi, Sonakshi Negi, Erik M. Benau, Megan Strowger, Megan Strowger, Anne Claire Grammer, C. Alix Timko, C. Alix Timko, C. Alix Timko

“…ObjectiveStudies that examine disordered eating in samples of Asian individuals living in the United States frequently combine all individuals of Asian descent into a single group, which can obscure important differences between groups and their experiences of acculturation. …”

Acceleration in first-order optimization methods: promenading beyond convexity or smoothness, and applications by Martinez Rubio, D

“…For example, Nesterov's Accelerated Gradient Descent improves over the gradient descent method for the optimization of smooth and convex functions. …”

Inferring dated genealogies from modern and ancient genomes by Wohns, AWL

“…Genealogical Nearest Neighbours quantifies topological relationships in a tree sequence and is applied to population sequencing datasets. The related Genomic Descent statistic quantifies descent from ancient individuals. …”

Sensitisation to Pollen Allergens in Children and Adolescents of Different Ancestry Born and Living in the Same Area by Somoza ML, Pérez-Sánchez N, Torres-Rojas I, Martín-Pedraza L, Blanca-López N, Victorio Puche L, Abel Fernández González E, López Sánchez JD, Fernández-Sánchez J, Fernández-Caldas E, Villalba M, Ruano FJ, Cornejo-García JA, Canto G, Blanca M

“…The association with ancestry was verified by studying participants’ parents.Results: The study included 693 participants: 48% were aged 3– 9 years and 52%, 10– 19 years; 80% were of Spanish descent and 20% of Moroccan descent. Sensitisation to Olea europaea, Phleum pratense, Salsola kali and Cupressus arizonica were slightly higher in the Spanish group. …”

Behavior of Biomphalaria glabrata, the intermediate host snail of Schistosoma mansoni, at different depths in water in laboratory conditions Comportamento de Biomphalaria glabrata,... by P. Jurberg, V. T. Schall, J. V. Barbosa, M. J. Gatti, M. S. Soares

“…In the 1.10m column, we noted that locomotion can occur in two manners: 1) when the foot is in contact with the substrate: a) sliding descent; b) sliding ascent; c) creeping descent; d) creeping ascent, 2) when the foot is not in contact with the substrate: a) sudden descent without emission of air bules; b) sudden descent with emission of air bules; c) sudden ascent. …”

Extracting hierarchical features of cultural variation using network-based clustering by Xiran Liu, Noah A. Rosenberg, Gili Greenbaum

“…Because cultural variation in part reflects descent processes with a hierarchical structure – including the descent of populations and vertical transmission of cultural traits – methods designed for hierarchically structured data have potential to find applications in the analysis of cultural variation. …”

A nonlinear conjugate gradient method with complexity guarantees and its application to nonconvex regression by Rémi Chan–Renous-Legoubin, Clément W. Royer

“…Our complexity results illustrate the possible discrepancy between nonlinear conjugate gradient methods and classical gradient descent. A numerical investigation on nonconvex robust regression problems as well as a standard benchmark illustrate that the restarting condition can track the behavior of a standard implementation.…”
