Novel metaheuristic for parameter estimation in nonlinear dynamic biological systems

TL;DR: A novel metaheuristic, inspired by recent developments in the field of operations research, was applied to a set of three challenging parameter estimation problems of nonlinear dynamic biological systems, outperforming very significantly all the methods previously used for these benchmark problems.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chilling and heat requirements of almond cultivars for flowering

TL;DR: The apricot cultivars showed important differences concerning flowering date, and the results indicate a high positive correlation between chilling requirements and floweringdate, as well as a negative correlation between chill requirements for breaking of dormancy and heat requirements for flowering.
Journal ArticleDOI

Extended ant colony optimization for non-convex mixed integer nonlinear programming

TL;DR: Two novel extensions for the well known ant colony optimization (ACO) framework are introduced here, which allow the solution of mixed integer nonlinear programs (MINLPs) and a hybrid implementation based on this extended ACO framework, specially developed for complex non-convex MINLPs is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phenotypic diversity and relationships of fruit quality traits in apricot (Prunus armeniaca L.) germplasm

TL;DR: Year-by-year variations were observed for some pomological traits such as harvest date, flesh colour, fruit weight, firmness and soluble solids content and a high correlation was found among some apricot quality attributes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Carotenoids from new apricot (Prunus armeniaca L.) varieties and their relationship with flesh and skin color.

TL;DR: The carotenoid content was correlated with the color measurements, and the hue angle in both flesh and peel was the parameter with the best correlation that could be achieved by using a portable colorimeter, as a simple and easy method for field usage applications.
