The Informational Model of the Holobiont: Statistical Tests for Selection and Extension to a Theory of Variable Interactions
Antonio Carvajal-Rodríguez
We review, clarify, and generalize a recently proposed evolutionary information-theoretic model of the holobiont, in which evolutionary change is quantified using Jeffreys divergen…

Life as a Categorical Information-Handling System: An Evolutionary Information-Theoretic Model of the Holobiont
Antonio Carvajal-Rodríguez
Living systems can be understood as organized entities that capture, transform, and reproduce information. Classical gene-centered models explain adaptation through frequency chang…

Simulating Genomes and Populations in the Mutation Space: An example with the evolution of HIV drug resistance
Antonio Carvajal-Rodriguez
When simulating biological populations under different evolutionary genetic models, backward or forward strategies can be followed. Backward simulations, also called coalescent-bas…
