  • Comparing Genetic Programming and Evolution Strategies on Inferring Gene Regulatory Networks.
    Felix Streichert, Hannes Planatscher, Christian Spieth, Holger Ulmer, and Andreas Zell

    Abstract:

    "In recent years several strategies for inferring gene regulatory networks from observed time series have been suggested based on Evolutionary Algorithms. But often only few problem instances are investigated and the proposed strategies are rarely compared to alternative strategies. In this paper we compare Evolution Strategies and Genetic Programming with respect to their performance on multiple problem instances with varying parameters. We show that single problem instances are not sufficient to prove the effectiveness of a given strategy and that the Genetic Programming approach is less prone to varying instances than the Evolution Strategy."

  • Differential reinforcement of finger-tapping performance signaled by a puff on different cigarettes: a paradigm for selectively manipulating reinforcement value of smoking.
    R. F. Mucha, H. Planatscher, S. Remmers, P. Weyers, P. Pauli

    Abstract:

    We report on the manipulation of reinforcement value of smoking without changes in smoking or test stimulus conditions. Smokers took two puffs on one of several identical but neutrally-identifiable cigarettes. Ss were then reinforced (circa FR10) with money for fingertapping. In a balanced fashion, one experimental cigarette was followed with lean reinforcement and one with enriched reinforcement. Whereas the experimental cigarettes had similar heart rate and carbon monoxide uptake, the Ss still attributed the payoffs to the preceding cigarettes. Control data indicated that the effects were not due to experience with the reinforcement contingency independent of smoking. Ss also preferred the cigarette puffed before the enriched performance. Reinforcement value of cigarette smoking can probably be manipulated as previously demonstrated for diazepam and amphetamine [Alessi et al. Exp. Clin. Psychopharmacol., 10, 77-83, (2001)].
