There is also theory behind frequency-dependent selection, but it beyond the scope of this article. From Wordnik.com. [The Panda's Thumb: EvoMath Archives] Reference
Many biologists believe that in ecology and social evolution, frequency-dependent selection is the rule, not the exception. From Wordnik.com. ['The Blank Slate': An Exchange] Reference
Finally, Orr dismisses the hypothesis that psychopathy is a product of frequency-dependent selection, which he calls "an esoteric evolutionary phenomenon.". From Wordnik.com. ['The Blank Slate': An Exchange] Reference
My definition of well-educated for laypersons is whether you can explain a frequency-dependent selection model, a phylogenetic tree, and why humans are taxonomically classified as an ape. From Wordnik.com. [Education Law and Evolution - The Panda's Thumb] Reference
A successful response to this challenge must be based on an explicit recognition of its existence, as made by Graumlich 1993 in her response surface approach, and of its frequency-dependent nature. From Wordnik.com. [Juckes and Covariance PCs « Climate Audit] Reference
She also clearly takes the trouble to inform herself well beyond the usual lay level e.g., about frequency-dependent selection models so as to be able to make informed judgments of who to trust as a reliable authority. From Wordnik.com. [Education Law and Evolution - The Panda's Thumb] Reference
As Pinker well knows, my point was that his adaptive tale is extravagant relative to the alternative hypothesis: Pinker thinks psychopathic behavior is an adaptive cheater strategy maintained by a special force called frequency-dependent selection, which, in this case, works only in large populations.

This data, thus, highlights the role of L2-R-feedback in the frequency-dependent sensitivity control of LMC output. From Wordnik.com. [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference
In effect, the combs are frequency-dependent strain gauges that measure changes in resonant frequency of the shaft. From Wordnik.com. [Manufacturingtalk - manufacturing industry news] Reference
An allpass-filters lets all frequencies pass without any attenuation or amplification, but introduces a frequency-dependent phase-shift. From Wordnik.com. [Softpedia - Windows - All] Reference
"It's a phenomenological shift, fundamentally different from traditional techniques that absorb sound using a more frequency-dependent resonance.". From Wordnik.com. [PhysOrg.com - latest science and technology news stories] Reference
This is an important constraint that the network must fulfill, given the experimental evidence for the owl learning frequency-dependent ITD selectivity in ICx. From Wordnik.com. [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference
"Sentech could not fully roll out its infrastructure plans and order frequency-dependent infrastructure until it knew what the frequency plan stipulated," he asserts. From Wordnik.com. [Engineering News | Home] Reference
Additionally, FCTs operate with frequency-dependent bandwidth, so you can more precisely match the time-versus-frequency trade-off at each frequency of the human hearing range. From Wordnik.com. Reference
This occurs in our model because addition and multiplication across frequency are clearly distinguished for neurons with highly frequency-dependent preferred ITD and ILD spectra. From Wordnik.com. [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference
In the second, if a diverse assemblage of species reduces the frequency of intraspecific interactions that can elicit transmission (e.g., by changing reservoir behavior), frequency-dependent pathogen transmission should be reduced. From Wordnik.com. [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference
It is reasonable to compute the weights separately for each frequency channel, given the experimental evidence that learning in the owl can elicit frequency-dependent connectivity changes in ICx We also considered simple static models of ICx responses to ITD and ILD in order to compare the responses of ICx neurons under the assumption of either additive or multiplicative frequency integration.
