Analyzing Environmental Change And Prehistoric Hunter Behavior Through A 3d Time-Lapsed Model With Level Auto-Generation And Cultural Algorithms, Samuel Dustin Stanley
Analyzing Environmental Change And Prehistoric Hunter Behavior Through A 3d Time-Lapsed Model With Level Auto-Generation And Cultural Algorithms, Samuel Dustin Stanley
Wayne State University Theses
This paper describes a system containing two portions whose purpose it is to help further the Alpena-Amberley Land Bridge research project and similar archaeological research. The first portion is a "time engine" which one can utilize to navigate through time in order to see how environmental conditions evolved as time passed, or to run experiments during a desired time period. The second portion is a hunting blind cultural algorithm, which is built on top of the time engine as well as Palazzolo's program. In this portion, the AI hunting blinds react to the goals that they are trying to achieve, …

Empirical Sampling From Permutation Space With Unique Patterns, Justice I. Odiase
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
The exact distribution of a test statistic ultimately guarantees that the probability of a Type I error is exactly α. Several methods for estimating the exact distribution of a test statistic have evolved over the years with inherent computational problems and varying degrees of accuracy. The unique pattern of permutations resulting from using experimental data to sample within the permutation space without the risk of repeating permutations is identified. The method presented circumvents the theoretical requirements of asymptotic procedures and the computational difficulties associated with an exhaustive enumeration of permutations. Results show that time and space complexities are drastically reduced …
