ABSTRACT
NESCent (The National Evolutionary Synthesis Center) is developing DRIADE (Digital Repository of Information and Data for Evolution) to address synthetic research challenges fundamental to advancing the field of evolutionary biology. This poster highlights results from a survey of selected repositories' functionalities, DRIADE's functional requirements, and DRIADE's functional model. We also summarize ongoing research activities, studying evolutionary biologists' data preservation practices and use requirements.

An extensible software infrastructure for testing the evolutionary consequences of developmental interactions
BCB '15: Proceedings of the 6th ACM Conference on Bioinformatics, Computational Biology and Health InformaticsQuantitative genetic models commonly use the additive genetic variance-covariance matrix (G-matrix) of a set of traits to predict evolution in response to selection. However, non-linear interactions between developmental factors underlying the ...
Leveraging More of Biology in Evolutionary Reinforcement Learning
Applications of Evolutionary ComputationAbstractIn this paper, we survey the use of additional biologically inspired mechanisms, principles, and concepts in the area of evolutionary reinforcement learning (ERL). While recent years have witnessed the emergence of a swath of metaphor-laden ...
HathiTrust research center: computational access for digital humanities and beyond
JCDL '13: Proceedings of the 13th ACM/IEEE-CS joint conference on Digital librariesAcademic libraries are increasingly looking to provide services that allow their users to work with digital collections in innovative ways, for example, to analyze large volumes of digitized collections. The HathiTrust Research Center (HTRC) is a large ...
