The phrase "adaptive by" is not standard in written English and may cause confusion.
It could be used in contexts where you are describing something that is made adaptable or flexible by a certain factor or influence.
Example: "The system is adaptive by design, allowing it to adjust to various user needs."
Alternatives: "made adaptable by" or "flexible due to".
In order to further enhance the system performance, the HARQ approach can be made adaptive by applying link adaptation (LA) strategies that do not only account for the information coming not only from the physical layer, but also from the higher layer schemes based on packet combining, so obtaining a cross-layer optimization of the link resource utilization.
We could only know in these cases, and in the vast majority of potential adaptations, what actually is adaptive by looking at the results in terms of survival and reproduction of the organisms possessing the trait(s).
By Peter Schjeldahl An Adaptive, by the veteran Austrian artist Franz West.
They can be made adaptive by choosing appropriate weight functions.
Having B is adaptive by virtue of its causing adaptive behavior, not by virtue of having true content.
Moreover, the RWLS representation is made adaptive by exploiting an efficient incremental updating mechanism.
When Lord and Novick (1968) outlined the fundamental assumptions of modern IRT, Lord (1971) was the first researcher to provide the framework and measurement justification for adaptive by-stage testing with IRT.
Author's response: We agree that the code's robustness, in principle, could emerge as a non-adaptive by-product of stereochemistry or co-evolution.
As a result, the code is highly albeit not optimally robust to errors of translation, a property that has been interpreted either as a product of selection directed at the minimization of errors or as a non-adaptive by-product of evolution of the code driven by other forces.

This is also confirmed, by analytical means based on adaptive dynamics, by Hilbe et al. (2013b).
