Abstract: Grouping selection arises naturally in many statistical modeling problems. Several group selection methods have been proposed in the last two decades. In this paper, we review the Bayesian group selection approaches for linear regression models.… read more here.

Abstract: Humans often behave altruistically towards strangers with no chance of reciprocation. From an evolutionary perspective, this is puzzling. The evolution of altruistic cooperative behavior—in which an organism’s action reduces its fitness and increases the fitness… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.beproc.2017.09.005
Abstract: How may patterns of behavior change over an organism's lifetime? The answer is that they evolve (behavioral evolution) as species evolve over generations (biological evolution). In biological evolution, under certain conditions, groups of cooperative organisms… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/forestry/cpw068
Abstract: The growth response of planted 7and 11-year-old Douglas-fir was measured in a series of 11 group selection harvest gaps ranging in size from 0.05 to 1.1 ha repeated on two study sites. The sites are… read more here.
