The growing of Eucalyptus trees in Kenya is widespread and there is high demand for their products. Infestation of Eucalyptus germplasm by Leptocybe invasa Fisher & LaSalle, a new pest, is causing a lot of worry since ...

Background: To restrict trial endpoints to infections acquired after vaccination in Phase IIb trials of candidate malaria vaccines, participants are treated with anti-malarial drugs to clear existing infections. Anti-malarial ...

In this paper, we propose the use of schemata bandits for optimization. This technique is a subclass of hierarchical bandits where the bandits are schemata. We investigate its use on a benchmark of binary combinatorial ...

Lagrange multipliers are a very useful technique in multivariable calculus, but all too often they are poorly taught and poorly understood. With luck, this overview will help to make the concept and its applications a bit ...

The mechanisms of some scientific phenomena are understood sufficiently well that useful mathematical models that flow directly from the physical mechanisms can be written down. Such models are not considered in this study. ...
