Supplementary Materials for Stick Insect Genomes Reveal Natural Selection's Role in Parallel Speciation

TL;DR: This article analyzed whole-genome divergence between replicate pairs of stick insect populations that are adapted to different host plants and undergoing parallel speciation and found thousands of modest-sized genomic regions of accentuated divergence between populations, most of which are unique to individual population pairs.

Host-based intrusion detection using dynamic and static behavioral models

TL;DR: This paper adopts an anomaly detection approach by detecting possible intrusions based on program or user profiles built from normal usage data using a scheme that can be justified from the perspective of hypothesis testing.

An Introduction to Digital Speech Processing

TL;DR: A comprehensive overview of digital speech processing that ranges from the basic nature of the speech signal, through a variety of methods of representing speech in digital form, to applications in voice communication and automatic synthesis and recognition of speech.

Reinforcement learning with perceptual aliasing: the perceptual distinctions approach

TL;DR: The predictive distinctions approach to compensate for perceptual aliasing caused from incomplete perception of the world is introduced and Experimental results are given for a simple simulated domain, and additional issues are discussed.

A probabilistic distance measure for hidden Markov models

TL;DR: A probabilistic distance measure for measuring the dissimilarity between pairs of hidden Markov models with arbitrary observation densities is proposed based on the Kullback-Leibler number and is consistent with the reestimation technique for hidden MarkOV models.

An inequality with applications to statistical estimation for probabilistic functions of Markov processes and to a model for ecology

TL;DR: In this paper, a polynomial with nonnegative coefficients homogeneous of degree d in its variables is shown to be polynomially homogeneous unless 3(3(x))>P(x), where 3(x)=x.

The Gamma Function

TL;DR: The Gamma function as discussed by the authors is a generalized factorial function that can be used to estimate the probability distribution of a probability distribution, and it has been used in many applications, e.g., as part of probability distributions.
