Adaptive behaviors are one of ubiquitous features in evolutionary dynamics of populations, and certain adaptive behaviors can be witnessed by individuals' movements which are generally affected by local environments. In this paper, by revisiting the previous work, we investigate the sensitivity of species coexistence in the system of cyclic competition where species movement can be affected by local environments. By measuring the extinction probability through Monte-Carlo simulations, we find the relativistic effect of weights of local fitness and exchange rate for adaptive movement on species biodiversity which promotes species coexistence as the relativistic effect is intensified. In addition, by means of basins of initial conditions, we also found that adaptive movement can also affect species biodiversity with respect to the choice of initial conditions. The strong adaptive movement can eventually lead the coexistence as a globally stable state in the spatially extended system regardless of mobility.

A total of two hundred twenty eight half-sib chickens were scored for allele size at 20 microsatellite loci to estimate individual heterozygosity and mean $d^2$. The averages of microsatellite heterozygosity, allele per locus and mean $d^2$ were 0.39, 3.6 and 49, respectively. The body weight was measured biweekly from birth to twelve weeks of age. Gompertz function was assumed to simulate body weight and to estimate the growth model parameters. Due to sex effect on body weight, the regression of body weight on heterozygosity as well as on mean $d^2$ in males and females was analyzed separately in the present study. Positive correlations were found between microsatellite heterozygosity and body weight in males and females (p<0.05). Positive correlation also observed between individual heterozygosity and simulated maximum daily gain estimated from Gompertz function in female chickens (p<0.05). There were no significant correlations between mean $d^2$ and body weight. The results suggest that local effect hypothesis could explain the correlations between heterozygosity and fitness-related traits in the domesticated chicken population, rather than the general effect hypothesis does.

본 연구는 중부지역 일본잎갈나무의 수간중량 추정식을 개발하기 위하여 지역별 개체목의 지위와 직경을 고려하여 표준지를 선정한 뒤, 총 55본의 표본목을 선정하였다. 표본목의 실측자료를 이용하여 수피외생중량, 수피외건중량, 수피내 건중량 및 이용중량 등 네종류의 중량을 추정하기 위해 11개의 모형을 비교 분석하였다. 중량을 추정하기 위해 흉고직경을 변수로 이용하는 경우, 흉고직경과 수고를 이용하는 경우, 재적을 이용하는 경우의 3개 변수에 따라 모형을 구분하였다. 최적의 모형은 적합지수와 추정의 표준오차 및 잔차의 분포를 이용하여 모형의 이행능력을 비교하여 선정하였다. 그 결과, 1변수인 흉고직경을 이용하는 식은 $W=a+bD+c^D^2$이며 설명력은 90~92%를 나타냈고, 흉고직경과 수고를 이용한 2변수식은 $W=aD^bH^C$으로 97~98%의 설명력으로 2변수 모형이 1변수 모형 보다 높은 적합도를 보였다. 또한 전체수간에 대한 재적과 이용재적에 대한 식인 W = aV로 중량추정설명력이 98~99%으로 높게 나타났고 SEE도 7.7~17.5, CV(%)도 8.0~10.0으로 우세한 적합도를 보였다. 본 연구는 개체목의 중량정보 제공 및 임분단위의 중량 바이오매스추정식의 기초연구로 활용될 것으로 판단된다.

A new approach, referred to as a successive zooming genetic algorithm (SZGA), is Proposed for identifying a global solution for continuous optimization problems. In order to improve the local fine-tuning capability of GA, we introduced a new method whereby the search space is zoomed around the design point with the best fitness per 100 generation. Furthermore, the reliability of the optimized solution is determined based on the theory of probability. To demonstrate the superiority of the proposed algorithm, a simple genetic algorithm, micro genetic algorithm, and the proposed algorithm were tested as regards for the minimization of a multiminima function as well as simple functions. The results confirmed that the proposed SZGA significantly improved the ability of the algorithm to identify a precise global minimum. As an example of structural optimization, the SZGA was applied to the optimal location of support points for weight minimization in the radial gate of a dam structure. The proposed algorithm identified a more exact optimum value than the standard genetic algorithms.

Obtaining accurate location information is important in practical applications of wireless sensor networks (WSNs). The distance vector hop (DV-Hop) is a frequently-used range-free localization algorithm in WSNs, but it has low localization accuracy. Moreover, despite various improvements to DV-Hop-based localization algorithms, maintaining a balance between high localization accuracy and good stability and convergence is still a challenge. To overcome these shortcomings, we proposed an improved DV-Hop localization algorithm based on the bat algorithm (IBDV-Hop) for WSNs. The IBDV-Hop algorithm incorporates optimization methods that enhance the accuracy of the average hop distance and fitness function. We also introduce a nonlinear dynamic inertial weight strategy to extend the global search scope and increase the local search accuracy. Moreover, we develop an updated solutions strategy that avoids premature convergence by the IBDV-Hop algorithm. Both theoretical analysis and simulation results show that the IBDV-Hop algorithm achieves higher localization accuracy than the original DV-Hop algorithm and other improved algorithms. The IBDV-Hop algorithm also exhibits good stability, search capability and convergence, and it requires little additional time complexity and energy consumption.
