Intelligent modelling of bioprocesses: A comparison of structured and unstructured approaches [PDF]
, 2004 This contribution moves in the direction of answering some general questions about the most effective and useful ways of modelling bioprocesses. We investigate the characteristics of models that are good at extrapolating.

A statistical model for estimating maternal-zygotic interactions and parent-of-origin effects of QTLs for seed development. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2008 Proper development of a seed requires coordinated exchanges of signals among the three components that develop side by side in the seed. One of these is the maternal integument that encloses the other two zygotic components, i.e., the diploid embryo and ...

Efficiency Enhancement of Genetic Algorithms via Building-Block-Wise Fitness Estimation [PDF]
, 2004 This paper studies fitness inheritance as an efficiency enhancement technique for a class of competent genetic algorithms called estimation distribution algorithms. Probabilistic models of important sub-solutions are developed to estimate the fitness of a proportion of individuals in the population, thereby avoiding computationally expensive function ...

Epigenetics Algorithms: Self-Reinforcement-Attention mechanism to regulate chromosomes expression [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Genetic algorithms are a well-known example of bio-inspired heuristic methods. They mimic natural selection by modeling several operators such as mutation, crossover, and selection. Recent discoveries about Epigenetics regulation processes that occur "on top of" or "in addition to" the genetic basis for inheritance involve changes that affect and ...

Distributed Global Optimization (DGO) [PDF]
Proceedings of International Conference on Neural Networks
(ICNN'96) June 1996, 2020 A new technique of global optimization and its applications in particular to neural networks are presented. The algorithm is also compared to other global optimization algorithms such as Gradient descent (GD), Monte Carlo (MC), Genetic Algorithm (GA) and other commercial packages.

A Genetic Quantum Annealing Algorithm [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 A genetic algorithm (GA) is a search-based optimization technique based on the principles of Genetics and Natural Selection. We present an algorithm which enhances the classical GA with input from quantum annealers. As in a classical GA, the algorithm works by breeding a population of possible solutions based on their fitness.

Goodness‐of‐fit tests in proportional hazards models with random effects
Biometrical Journal, Volume 65, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023 Abstract This paper deals with testing the functional form of the covariate effects in a Cox proportional hazards model with random effects. We assume that the responses are clustered and incomplete due to right censoring. The estimation of the model under the null (parametric covariate effect) and the alternative (nonparametric effect) is performed ...

Ancestral haplotype reconstruction in endogamous populations using identity-by-descent.
PLoS Computational Biology, 2021 In this work we develop a novel algorithm for reconstructing the genomes of ancestral individuals, given genotype or sequence data from contemporary individuals and an extended pedigree of family relationships.
