The simulated annealing was implemented to obtain a background velocity distribution used by the linearized inversion for the initial guess. The linearized component was based on the functional description of traveltimes...

..., linearization between data and model parameters by means of (BDK) kernels calculated in simple (quasi-homogeneous) background media has significant limitations. We appreciate M3's remarks about the upper-mantle part of their models, but suggesting that HH05c's analysis is biased through an emphasis on upper...

Thus, these genes arose by duplications of a chromosome region before the radiation of gnathostomes (jawed vertebrates). Estimates of duplication times from linearized trees together with evidence from other...

The prior distribution used is that which is minimally informative about the regression vector. In the special case of the linear model this procedure leads to the prior density 1/θ, thereby producing...

In the first part of the chapter, the properties of gravitational waves, which are the general solution of the linearized vacuum Einstein equations, are studied. Next...
