This study examined the anecdotal notion that people choose partners based on preferred characteristics that constitute their ‘type’. We gathered the eye colours of participants’ partners across their entire romantic history in three samples (student-centred, adult, and celebrity). We calculated the proportion of partners’ eye colours, and compared that to 100,000 random permutations of our observed dataset using t-tests. This was to investigate if the eye colour choices in the original datasets had greater consistency than in the permutations. Across all samples, we observed no good evidence that individuals make consistent eye colour choices, suggesting that eye colour may not be a priority when choosing a partner.

Given f ∈ C [−1, 1], let Hn, 3(f, x) denote the (0,1,2) Hermite-Fejér interpolation polynomial of f based on the Chebyshev nodes. In this paper we develop a precise estimate for the magnitude of the approximation error |Hn, 3(f, x) − f(x)|. Further, we demonstrate a method of combining the divergent Lagrange and (0,1,2) interpolation methods on the Chebyshev nodes to obtain a convergent rational interpolatory process.

AbstractIncreasing understanding of human genome variability allows for better use of the predictive potential of DNA. An obvious direct application is the prediction of the physical phenotypes. Significant success has been achieved, especially in predicting pigmentation characteristics, but the inference of some phenotypes is still challenging. In search of further improvements in predicting human eye colour, we conducted whole-exome (enriched in regulome) sequencing of 150 Polish samples to discover new markers. For this, we adopted quantitative characterization of eye colour phenotypes using high-resolution photographic images of the iris in combination with DIAT software analysis. An independent set of 849 samples was used for subsequent predictive modelling. Newly identified candidates and 114 additional literature-based selected SNPs, previously associated with pigmentation, and advanced machine learning algorithms were used. Whole-exome sequencing analysis found 27 previously unreported candidate SNP markers for eye colour. The highest overall prediction accuracies were achieved with LASSO-regularized and BIC-based selected regression models. A new candidate variant, rs2253104, located in the ARFIP2 gene and identified with the HyperLasso method, revealed predictive potential and was included in the best-performing regression models. Advanced machine learning approaches showed a significant increase in sensitivity of intermediate eye colour prediction (up to 39%) compared to 0% obtained for the original IrisPlex model. We identified a new potential predictor of eye colour and evaluated several widely used advanced machine learning algorithms in predictive analysis of this trait. Our results provide useful hints for developing future predictive models for eye colour in forensic and anthropological studies.

AbstractWe consider a 1-parameter family of hyperbolic surfaces M(t) of genus ν which degenerate as t → 0 and we obtain a precise estimate of λAs a direct application, we obtain that the quotientTo prove our results we use in an essential way the geometry of hyperbolic surfaces which is very well known. We show that an eigenfunction for λ
