There's a basic, profound acceleration of this evolutionary process.

Now, uncertainty is a very bad thing. It's evolutionarily a bad thing.

Now this is an interesting chart, and this really gets at the fundamental reason why an evolutionary process and both biology and technology are evolutionary processes accelerate.

Now this is an interesting chart, and this really gets at the fundamental reason why an evolutionary process and both biology and technology are evolutionary processes accelerate.

A motivation for this classification is to determine the evolutionary relationship between proteins.

We're sort of circumventing evolutionary programs that guide our behavior.

A couple of them were students in a course I was giving on evolutionary biology.

And so we could do a content analysis on these cultural products to help us identify some of the evolutionary forces that would have led to the evolution of the human mind.

And this is a little phylogenetic tree to see how it's related to other viruses.

You know, think of our evolutionary predilection for eating sweet things, fatty things like cheesecake.

Later, I would work on evolutionary genetics, and I would work on systems biology.

And we're learning from neural nets, genetic algorithms, evolutionary computing.

Australia is a continent that broke off from the other continents and it evolved very rapidly because it diverged from the evolutionary tree.

Many of the risks from evolutionary engineering are triggered by bad parental decision making.

The papers reveal in part Parsons' early interest in social evolutionary questions.

Now, after five generations of applying evolutionary process, the genetic algorithm is getting a tiny bit better.

In rare cases, evolutionary computation may be used to design the physical structure of the robot, in addition to the controller.

Similarly, developmental systems may be highly canalised, to prevent the generation of certain types of variation.

It rejects evolutionary biology, which it views as a corrupting moral and social influence and threat to religious belief.

Evolutionary robotics (ER) is a methodology that uses evolutionary computation to develop controllers for autonomous robots.

You get divided, and a continent's division corresponds to a fork in the evolutionary tree, or you're crafty, and you manage to escape from one to the other and erase that division, or you're living peacefully on each side, and on one side you just go extinct, and you survive on the other side and create a difference.

He had no concept of the idea of an algorithm, but that's what he described in that book, and this is what we now know as the evolutionary algorithm.

Now I discussed this with Professor Simon Baron Cohen who's the professor of developmental psychopathology at Cambridge.

The end result of these development policies could also be important for the development of new traffic and for the financial and economic results of the project.

In our tenure on this planet we've accumulated dangers, evolutionary baggage, propensities for aggression and ritual, submission to leaders, hostility to outsiders, all of which puts our survival in some doubt.

And when you have that, then evolutionary theory tells us that natural selection will favor the more exploitative, more predator like organisms.

Full scale human evolutionary engineering is still far off, but, at some point in the future, it may well become routine.

Maybe the best theory is that there wasn't really an agriculture revolution at all, but that agriculture came out of an evolutionary desire to eat more,

Numerous recent events and initiatives have greatly contributed to this evolutionary process in their respective spheres and have played a significant role to this end.

When you're watching your stocks plummet into the red, when you're watching your house price go down, you're not going to be able to see that in anything but old evolutionary terms.

But Moore's Law, which is very often identified with this exponential growth, is just one example of many, because it's basically a property of the evolutionary process of technology.

Now, uncertainty is a very bad thing. It's evolutionarily a bad thing. If you're not sure that's a predator, it's too late.

They will need to understand the evolutionary dynamics of resistant populations, and design strategies to suppress or exploit the adapted characteristics.

They have started to trace the evolutionary origins of pro social sentiments such as empathy, and have begun to uncover the genes that dispose some individuals to senseless violence and others to acts of altruism, and the pathways in our brain that shape our ethical decisions.

We're interested in things that have big teeth, and you can see the evolutionary value of that, and you can also see the practical consequences by watching Animal Planet.

This need for a large number of evaluations, requiring fast yet accurate computer simulations, is one of the limiting factors of the ER approach .

We can't predict any particular project, but the result of this whole worldwide, chaotic, unpredictable activity of competition and the evolutionary process of technology is very predictable.

However you have to realize that as far as gross evolutionary pressure is concerned, there is none anymore on the human race.

We don't really think of the evolutionary need to be protected by our senses, but that's probably why our senses really evolved to keep us safe, to allow us to live.

Their research developed a phylogenetic tree that determined the evolutionary changes that were required for a particular protein to change into another protein based on the underlying amino acid sequences.

But legislation to safeguard children s welfare does not adequately address harms produced or set in motion before birth, or establish which types of evolutionary engineering are acceptable.

The observation of evolutionary processes occurring (as well as the modern evolutionary synthesis explaining that evidence) has been uncontroversial among mainstream biologists for nearly a century and remains so today.

In this work, it is important to allow for smoking habits, for which historical data are usually either lacking or unreliable in cohort studies.

Cohorts of the dinosaurs, sea turtles have survived through the challenges of eons, existing still today, where many others have ended their evolutionary run.

The most famous of these studies, anthropologist Helen Fisher s The Anatomy of Love , explains the evolutionary impetus for human tendencies in courtship, marriage, adultery, divorce, and childrearing.
