Predicting Yield Performance of Parents in Plant Breeding: A Neural Collaborative Filtering Approach [PDF]
Experimental corn hybrids are created in plant breeding programs by crossing two parents, so-called inbred and tester, together. Identification of best parent combinations for crossing is challenging since the total number of possible cross combinations of parents is large and it is impractical to test all possible cross combinations due to limited ...

Safety Embedded Differential Dynamic Programming Using Discrete Barrier States [PDF]
Certified safe control is a growing challenge in robotics, especially when performance and safety objectives must be concurrently achieved. In this work, we extend the barrier state (BaS) concept, recently proposed for safe stabilization of continuous time systems, to safety embedded trajectory optimization for discrete time systems using discrete ...

Major gene effects on traits associated with substance use disorders are rare. Previous findings in methamphetamine drinking (MADR) lines of mice, bred for high or low voluntary MA intake, and in null mutants demonstrate a major impact of the trace amine-

Quantitative trait loci that determine lipoprotein cholesterol levels in DBA/2J and CAST/Ei inbred mice, [PDF]
To investigate genetic contributions to individual variations of lipoprotein cholesterol concentrations, we performed quantitative trait locus/loci (QTL) analyses of an intercross of CAST/Ei and DBA/2J inbred mouse strains after feeding a high-cholesterol cholic acid diet for 10 weeks. In total, we identified four QTL for HDL cholesterol.

Empirical likelihood for estimating equations with missing values [PDF]
We consider an empirical likelihood inference for parameters defined by general estimating equations when some components of the random observations are subject to missingness. As the nature of the estimating equations is wide-ranging, we propose a nonparametric imputation of the missing values from a kernel estimator of the conditional distribution of

Background The mouse represents an important model system to study the host response to influenza A infections and to evaluate new prevention or treatment strategies. We and others reported that the susceptibility to influenza A virus infections strongly

Foster dams rear fighters: strain-specific effects of within-strain fostering on aggressive behavior in male mice. [PDF]
It is well known that genes and environment interact to produce behavioral phenotypes. One environmental factor with long-term effects on gene transcription and behavior is maternal care.

Topological Representation of Double Boolean Algebras [PDF]
In formal concept analysis, the collection of protoconcepts of any context forms a double Boolean algebra (dBa) which is fully contextual. Semiconcepts of a context form a pure dBa. The present article is a study on topological representation results for dBas, and in particular, those for fully contextual and pure dBas.

Sensory stimuli are natural rewards in mice and humans. Consequently, preference for a drug reward relative to a sensory reward may be an endophenotype of addiction vulnerability.

BO-DBA: Query-Efficient Decision-Based Adversarial Attacks via Bayesian Optimization [PDF]
Decision-based attacks (DBA), wherein attackers perturb inputs to spoof learning algorithms by observing solely the output labels, are a type of severe adversarial attacks against Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) requiring minimal knowledge of attackers. State-of-the-art DBA attacks relying on zeroth-order gradient estimation require an excessive number of ...
