Purines in the Integument of the Atlantic Salmon (<i>Salmo salar</i>) During Parr–Smolt Transformation
No full text During the parr–smolt transformation in Atlantic salmon, silvery materials were found beneath the scales (scale layer) and deep in the dermis adjacent to the muscle (skin layer). Both layers were thicker in smolts than in parr and both layers contained guanine and lesser amounts of hypoxanthine.Changes in levels of guanine, hypoxanthine, and the ratio between them (G/H) were measured from late December to late May on 2-year-old parr held in the laboratory under natural photoperiods and at temperatures varying from 6.0 in December to 9.5 C in late May. The change from parr to silvery parr during February and March accompanied sharp increases in guanine, hypoxanthine, and G/H values in the skin layer with less marked increases in the scale layer. The change from silvery parr to smolts during April and May accompanied sharp increases in guanine, hypoxanthine, and G/H values in the scale layer but no change occurred in the trend already established in the skin layer.Parr held all winter under stream conditions and examined in early April possessed purine levels and G/H ratios in the skin and scale layers comparable to those in laboratory fish during the previous December.Silvery parr captured migrating seaward in early June had purine levels and G/H ratios in the scale layer similar to those in laboratory smolts in late May but skin guanine values were much lower and the G/H ratio in the skin was extremely low. </jats:p
Decentralized Bayesian reinforcement learning for online agent collaboration
No full textSolving complex but structured problems in a decentralized manner via multiagent collaboration has received much attention in recent years. This is natural, as on one hand, multiagent systems usually possess a structure that determines the allowable interactions among the agents; and on the other hand, the single most pressing need in a cooperative multiagent system is to coordinate the local policies of autonomous agents with restricted capabilities to serve a system-wide goal. The presence of uncertainty makes this even more challenging, as the agents face the additional need to learn the unknown environment parameters while forming (and following) local policies in an online fashion. In this paper, we provide the first Bayesian reinforcement learning (BRL) approach for distributed coordination and learning in a cooperative multiagent system by devising two solutions to this type of problem. More specifically, we show how the Value of Perfect Information (VPI) can be used to perform efficient decentralised exploration in both model-based and model-free BRL, and in the latter case, provide a closed form solution for VPI, correcting a decade old result by Dearden, Friedman and Russell. To evaluate these solutions, we present experimental results comparing their relative merits, and demonstrate empirically that both solutions outperform an existing multiagent learning method, representative of the state-of-the-art

Nocturnal habitat use of Atlantic salmon parr in winter
No full text We completed 22 night snorkeling surveys between November and March 1995-1997 to quantify Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) parr habitat use relative to habitat availability in the Rock River, Vermont, U.S.A. On average, post-young-of-the-year (PYOY) parr selected greater water depths in winter than young-of-the-year (YOY) parr, whereas YOY and PYOY parr both selected water velocities ([Formula: see text]19 cm/s) that were significantly lower than random measurements (46 cm/s). Maturity of PYOY parr had no significant influence on habitat selection. The majority of YOY and PYOY parr at night were found in contact with the stream bottom resting on silt-sand or gravel substrates in velocity dead-zone habitats created by the stream edge or depositional habitats created by midstream rocks and boulders. The strong selection that nocturnal Atlantic salmon parr exhibit for low water velocity areas in winter indicates the importance of maintaining large instream cover that provides refuges from high flows. The similarity that YOY and PYOY parr exhibited in many elements of habitat selection suggests that both stages may be similarly susceptible to habitat limitations in winter. </jats:p
