Three types of rectangular fragments were used to study the physical influence factors： filter paper with paraffin, filter paper without paraffin and polyester film. To study the chemical factors, some fragments were impregnated with organic extract of orange albedo, others were soaked with soybean oil and for the remaining ones nothing was applied. The fonowing parameters were evaluated： （i） attractiveness of substrate for transport and number of loading workers per treatment; （ii） foraged material incorporation; （iii） rejection by numbers of fragments deposited in the garbage or beside the fungus garden. All the polyester film fragments carried out to the fungus garden were subsequently rejected. We verified that chemical factors of the substrate were more quickly detected by the workers, whereas physical factors were used as a criterion in the decision-making to reject or accept the substrate collected.展开更多

There are currently eleven different genomic subtypes of HIV-1, as well as a number of recombinant subtypes. An area of study in bioinformatics is the development of algorithms to identify the subtypes of HIV-1 genomes. Ant-based algorithms have the ability to find global solutions in optimizations problems, and are also able to process complex data efficiently. We proposed a new technique named Ant Colony Anchor Algorithm (ACAA), using anchors of training data on a topographic map to categorize HIV-1 sequences based on ant-based clustering. We used three sets of sequences from the POL region of the HIV-1 genome. We categorized these three dataset with the Subtype Analyzer (STAR), a current HIV-1 categorization algorithm, and the ACAA. We found that the ACAA returned higher accuracy values of 83.2%, 67.1%, and 53.5% for our three datasets respectively, than the STAR’s 47.3%, 49.4% and 18%. The results of the ACAA are the average results of 20 runs of the algorithm. We also observed the performance of the algorithm on specific subtypes, and observed that while the STAR and ACAA performed with similar accuracy on several subtypes (A, B, and C in particular), the ACAA had a significant advantage over the STAR in others, especially in categorizing recombinant subtypes.展开更多
