About this product
Product Information
This book deals with combinatorial aspects of epistasis, a notion that existed for years in genetics and appeared in the ?eld of evolutionary algorithms in the early 1990s. Even thoughthe'rst chapterputsepistasisintheperspective ofevolutionary algorithms and arti'cial intelligence, and applications occasionally pop up in other chapters, thisbookisessentiallyaboutmathematics, aboutcombinatorialtechniques to compute in an e'cient and mathematically elegant way what will be de'ned as normalized epistasis. Some of the material in this book ?nds its origin in the PhD theses of Hugo Van Hove [97] and Dominique Suys [95]. The sixth chapter also contains material that appeared in the dissertation of Luk Schoofs [84]. Together with that of M. Teresa Iglesias [36], these dissertations form the backbone of a decade of mathematical ventures in the world of epistasis. The authors wish to acknowledge support from the Flemish Fund of Scienti'c - search (FWO-Vlaanderen) and of the Xunta de Galicia. They also wish to explicitly mentiontheintellectualandmoralsupporttheyreceivedthroughoutthepreparation of this work from their family and their colleagues Emilio Villanueva, Jose Mar´a Barja and Arnold Beckelheimer, as well as our local T T Xpert Jan Adriaenssens.

From the reviews: "This book deals with combinatorial aspects of epistasis, especially normalized epistasis, a concept that exists in genetics and evolutionary algorithms. It starts with the theory of evolutionary algorithms. This illustrative introduction makes the book readable independent on other textbooks. ... The book is very well written and presents many important and useful results. ... It shows also that difficult practical problems can only be efficiently solved by a combination of Modelling, Mathematics and Computing." (Christian Posthoff, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1108 (10), 2007), From the reviews:"This book deals with combinatorial aspects of epistasis, especially normalized epistasis, a concept that exists in genetics and evolutionary algorithms.

Item as described, good price, well packaged, arrived slightly later than hoped (not in time for Christmas ) but the order was placed in a very busy shipping period. No issue with the seller’s speed of response and sending the item. Great seller!

I was pleasantly surprised by how soon I received this textbook given that it shipped from outside the U.S. It was packaged well with no damage. The price was right. And I greatly appreciated the communication informing me where the book was shipping from and including a tracking number. Overall, a positive experience, - online shopping the way it should be. I've bought books from this seller several times now without any complaints and will surely buy from them again. Thanks a lot!

Quality and hard to find book that won't be released 'til January 2025 in the U.S.A.
Fantastic price.
Book was in a secure and protective package. Arrived a few days after I placed order and that was faster than I expected.
Seller is a fantastic communicator and proactive in regards to tracking status. I'd definitely buy from them in the future.
