In this paper we study a harvesting problem in the presence of a predator and a tax. The objective is to maximize the monetary social benefit as well as prevent the predator from extinction, keeping the ecological balance. (C) 1998 Society for Mathematical Biology.

Inference of switching networks by using a piecewise linear formulation
Akçay, Didem; Öktem, Hakan; Department of Scientific Computing (2005)
Inference of regulatory networks has received attention of researchers from many fields. The challenge offered by this problem is its being a typical modeling problem under insufficient information about the process. Hence, we need to derive the apriori unavailable information from the empirical observations. Modeling by inference consists of selecting or defining the most appropriate model structure and inferring the parameters. An appropriate model structure should have the following properties. The model...
Case-control and case-only designs with genotype and family history data: Estimating relative risk, residual familial aggregation, and cumulative risk
Chatterjee, N; Kalaylıoğlu Akyıldız, Zeynep Işıl; Shih, JH; Gail, MH (Wiley, 2006-03-01)
In case-control studies of inherited diseases, participating subjects (probands) are often interviewed to collect detailed data about disease history and age-at-onset information in their family members. Genotype data are typically collected from the probands, but not from their relatives. In this article, we introduce an approach that combines case-control analysis of data on the probands with kin-cohort analysis of disease history data on relatives. Assuming a marginally specified multivariate survival mo...
A mathematical modeling and approximation of gene expression patterns by linear and quadratic regulatory relations and analysis of gene networks
Yılmaz, Fatma Bilge; Weber, Gerhard Wilhelm; Department of Scientific Computing (2004)
This thesis mainly concerns modeling, approximation and inference of gene regulatory dynamics on the basis of gene expression patterns. The dynamical behavior of gene expressions is represented by a system of ordinary di erential equations. We introduce a gene-interaction matrix with some nonlinear entries, in particular, quadratic polynomials of the expression levels to keep the system solvable. The model parameters are determined by using optimization. Then, we provide the time-discrete approximation of o...
Energy-based non-local plasticity models for deformation patterning, localization and fracture
Lancioni, Giovanni; Yalçınkaya, Tuncay; Cocks, Alan (The Royal Society, 2015-08-08)
This paper analyses the effect of the form of the plastic energy potential on the (heterogeneous) distribution of the deformation field in a simple setting where the key physical aspects of the phenomenon could easily be extracted. This phenomenon is addressed through two different (rate-dependent and rate-independent) non-local plasticity models, by numerically solving two distinct one-dimensional problems, where the plastic energy potential has different non-convex contributions leading to patterning of t...
Predictors of turkish elementary teacher candidates' energy conservation behaviors: An approach on value-belief-norm theory
Şahin, Elvan (Eurasian Society of Educational Research, 2013-05-10)
The present study aimed to explain elementary teacher candidates' energy conservation behaviors by using Value-Belief-Norm (VBN) Theory. Participants in this study were 512 students at Faculty of Education from two public universities in Turkey. Of the 512 students, 35.5% were enrolled in the early childhood education program, 30.9% were in the elementary science education program, and 27.7% were in the elementary mathematics education program. The rest of the participants were pursuing a graduate program u...
