Routes for breaching and protecting genetic privacy

open access: yes, 2013
We are entering the era of ubiquitous genetic information for research, clinical care, and personal curiosity. Sharing these datasets is vital for rapid progress in understanding the genetic basis of human diseases.

Fast Genetic Algorithms

open access: yes, 2017
For genetic algorithms using a bit-string representation of length~$n$, the general recommendation is to take $1/n$ as mutation rate. In this work, we discuss whether this is really justified for multimodal functions. Taking jump functions and the $(1+1)$

Texas Physicians\u27 Awareness and Utilization of Genetic Services [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The number of disorders for which genetic testing is available has increased nearly 500% in the past 15 years. Access to the majority of genetic tests and services hinges on physicians’ ability to identify patients at risk for genetic disease and provide

Misspecification in mixed-model based association analysis

open access: yes, 2015
Additive genetic variance in natural populations is commonly estimated using mixed models, in which the covariance of the genetic effects is modeled by a genetic similarity matrix derived from a dense set of markers.

Self-adaptation of Genetic Operators Through Genetic Programming Techniques

open access: yes, 2017
Here we propose an evolutionary algorithm that self modifies its operators at the same time that candidate solutions are evolved. This tackles convergence and lack of diversity issues, leading to better solutions.
