We consider polygenic divergent selection in a mainland-island model, where our aim is to understand how patterns of genetic variation along the genome reflect the genetic architecture of postzygotic reproductive isolation. We derive a new expression for the effective migration rate (m_e_) at both neutral and…

In the springs of 2012-2013, Russian Federation scientists conducted aerial surveys of ice-associated seals (including bearded, ribbon, ringed, and spotted seals) in the Sea of Okhotsk and in Russian waters of the western Bering Sea. These instrument-based surveys used a combination of thermal imaging and digital…

Extensive studies suggest the brain performs Bayesian inference to infer the latent world states. It is a fundamental neuroscience question that how canonical recurrent neural circuits in the brain implement Bayesian inference. Many existing theoretical studies focused on how the recurrent circuits compute the…

How transient neural representations become integrated and stable enough to function as internal neural models remains incompletely understood. Grounded in efficient coding, Bayesian and predictive frameworks, recurrent and attractor dynamics, neural state-space models, and systems neuroscience, the Principle of…
