Optimization algorithms and methods

Bacterial colony optimization

The bacterial colony optimization algorithm is an optimization algorithm which is based on a lifecycle model that simulates some typical behaviors of E. coli bacteria during their whole lifecycle, including chemotaxis, communication, elimination, reproduction, and migration. (Wikipedia).

Taxonomy of Bacteria: Identification and Classification

We've been looking at bacteria for a few centuries now, so how do we categorize them? We love to classify things and put them in groups, so how does that work for bacteria? Well let's learn about Gram-staining, antigens, other phenotypic and genotypic properties, and we will be well on our

Introduction to Virology and Viral Classification

There are two main types of pathogens we will be focusing on in this series. The first was bacteria, and we just wrapped up a good amount of information on those. The next is viruses. These little things are much tinier than bacteria, and they are so simple in structure that we technically

Introduction to the Microbial World

It's time to learn about microorganisms! These are all the tiny little critters in the water, and the air, and in the ground, and inside you. We didn't even know they were there until a few hundred years ago, but once we started to learn about them, we started to figure out a lot of things
