Extracting phylogenetic dimensions of coevolution reveals hidden functional signals

Anne-Florence Raphaëlle Bitbol

Despite the structural and functional information contained in the statistical coupling between pairs of residues in a protein, coevolution associated with function is often obscured by artifactual signals such as genetic drift, which shapes a protein's ph ...

Robotic manipulation to investigate the physical principles of biological self-organization

Fazil Emre Uslu

Self-organization is the spontaneous formation of ordered patterns and networks from a population of comparatively simple elements or individuals with no prior information on neither the formation process nor the final organization. While the construction ...

The institutional challenges of scaling-up housing retrofit: the Swiss cities of Basel and Sion

Eghbal Arian Mahzouni

Purpose This paper aims to discuss the nexus between two societal (sub) systems of housing and energy supply to shed new light on the key institutional barriers to socio-technical energy transition in the built environment. The key research question is to ...

The Seamless Peer and Cloud Evolution Framework

Dario Floreano, Joshua Evan Auerbach, Giovanni Iacca

Evolutionary algorithms are increasingly being applied to problems that are too computationally expensive to run on a single personal computer due to costly fitness function evaluations and/or large numbers of fitness evaluations. Here, we introduce the Se ...

Oral transfer of chemical cues, growth proteins and hormones in social insects

Laurent Keller, Laure Menin, Daniel Ortiz Trujillo, Oksana Riba Grognuz

Social insects frequently engage in oral fluid exchange trophallaxis between adults, and between adults and larvae. Although trophallaxis is widely considered a food-sharing mechanism, we hypothesized that endogenous components of this fluid might underlie ...

Pattern detection for conceptual schema recovery in data-intensive systems

Gianluigi Viscusi

In this paper, an approach for information systems reverse engineering is proposed and applied. The aim is to support a unified perspective to the reverse engineering process of both data and software. At the state of the art, indeed, many methods, techniq ...

The alignment between institutions and technology in network industries

Matthias Finger, Nicolas Crettenand

Network industries, such as electricity, railways and air transport, are very complex technical, economic, and political systems in which the alignment between technology and institutions has a significant impact on performance. This alignment has been stu ...

The Role of Invariants in the Co-evolution of Business and Technical Service Specification of an Enterprise

Alain Wegmann

We explore invariants as a linking mechanism between the business and technical service perspectives: From the business perspec- tive, invariants can be used to model (business) requirements of an en- terprise; from the technical perspective, invariants ex ...

IL-1β Suppresses Innate IL-25 and IL-33 Production and Maintains Helminth Chronicity

Nicola Harris, Mario Michael Zaiss, Ilaria Mosconi

Approximately 2 billion people currently suffer from intestinal helminth infections, which are typically chronic in nature and result in growth retardation, vitamin A deficiency, anemia and poor cognitive function. Such chronicity results from co-evolution ...

Analysis of Co-evolving Gene Families Using Mutually Exclusive Orthologous Modules

Xiuwei Zhang

Coevolutionary networks can encapsulate information about the dynamics of presence and absence of gene families in organisms. Analysis of such networks should reveal fundamental principles underlying the evolution of cellular systems and the functionality ...

Co-evolution of Morphology and Control of Virtual Legged Robots for the Steering Task

Auke Ijspeert, Soha Pouya, Jesse van den Kieboom

Co-evolution of morphology and control is a powerful approach in robotics to study performance on a particular task, considering mechanical structure and control as a whole to accomplish a certain goal. Co-evolutionary methods have been used to study the e ...

The evolution of communication in robot societies

Sara Mitri

Communication is fundamental to life on earth. All social organisms, from bacteria to humans, use communicative signals to coordinate their behaviors with members of their own and other species. Despite its key role in social organization, many questions r ...

The Evolution of Information Suppression in Communicating Robots with Conflicting Interests

Dario Floreano, Laurent Keller, Sara Mitri

Reliable information is a crucial factor influencing decision-making, and thus fitness in all animals. A common source of information comes from inadvertent cues produced by the behavior of conspecifics. Here we use a system of experimental evolution with ...
