Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS) explain only a small fraction of heritability for most complex human phenotypes. Genomic heritability estimates the variance explained by the SNPs on the whole genome using mixed models and accounts for the many ...

Historically, end-product quality testing has been costly and required large flour samples; therefore, it was generally implemented in the late phases of variety development, imposing a huge cost on the breeding effort and effectiveness.

Mean squared errors of small area estimators under a unit-level multivariate model [PDF]
This work deals with estimating the vector of means of characteristics of small areas. In this context, a unit level multivariate model with correlated sampling errors is considered.

Modified Maximum Likelihood Predictors of Future Order Statistics from Rayleigh Samples [PDF]
In this paper we present some modified maximum likelihood predictors of the s-th order statistic based on r order statistics of random samples of size n from Rayleigh distribution, where r < s ≤ n.

The approximated non-linear least squares (ALS) tunes or calibrates the computer model by minimizing the squared error between the computer output and real observations by using an emulator such as a Gaussian process (GP) model. A potential defect of the

Design-based composite estimation of small proportions in small domains
Traditional direct estimation methods are inefficient for domains of a survey population with small sample sizes. To estimate the domain proportions, we combine the direct estimators and the regression-synthetic estimators based on domain-level ...

Strategies for Estimating Genetic Parameters in Marker-Assisted Best Linear Unbiased Predictor Models in Dairy Cattle [PDF]
An appropriate strategy to estimate variance components and breeding values in genetic models with quantitative trait loci (QTL) was developed for a dairy cattle breeding scheme by utilizing simulated data. Reliable estimates for variance components in QTL models are a prerequisite in fine-mapping experiments and for marker-assisted genetic evaluations.

A Two‐Stage Questionnaire and Actigraphy Screening for iRBD in a Multicenter Retrospective Cohort
ABSTRACT Objective Isolated rapid‐eye‐movement sleep behavior disorder is a prodromal marker of synucleinopathies. However, most cases remain undiagnosed due to the insufficient predictive value of questionnaires and limited access to confirmatory video‐polysomnography. We assessed a two‐stage screening strategy combining a brief questionnaire on rapid‐
