Factors Impacting the Choice of Seatbelt Use, Accounting for Complexity of Travelers’ Behaviors

open access: yesFuture Transportation, 2022
Wyoming has one of the highest fatality rates, and a significantly lower rate of seatbelt use in the United States. Thus, this study was conducted with the objective to investigate contributory factors to the choice of drivers’ seatbelt use.

Simulating Maize Response to Split-Nitrogen Fertilization Using Easy-to-Collect Local Features

open access: yesNitrogen, 2023
Maize (Zea mays) is a high-nitrogen (N)-demanding crop potentially contributing to nitrate contamination and emissions of nitrous oxide. The N fertilization is generally split between sowing time and the V6 stage.

Mapping Stem Rust (Puccinia graminis f. sp. secalis) Resistance in Self-Fertile Winter Rye Populations

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Rye stem rust caused by Puccinia graminis f. sp. secalis can be found in all European rye growing regions. When the summers are warm and dry, the disease can cause severe yield losses over large areas.

Mixed Markov models [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2003
Markov random fields can encode complex probabilistic relationships involving multiple variables and admit efficient procedures for probabilistic inference. However, from a knowledge engineering point of view, these models suffer from a serious limitation.

Exploring the Link Between Additive Heritability and Prediction Accuracy From a Ridge Regression Perspective

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2020
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 ...

Does objectively measured daily duration of forward bending predict development and aggravation of low-back pain? A prospective study

open access: yesScandinavian Journal of Work, Environment & Health, 2016
OBJECTIVES: The aim of this paper was to investigate if objectively measured daily duration of forward bending of the trunk increases the risk of the development or aggravation of low-back pain (LBP) over one year in a working blue-collar population by ...

Conventional and Mixed Model Approach to Estimate Heterosis of the Growth Traits in Boer Goat’s Crossbred Offspring Populations

open access: yesCaraka Tani: Journal of Sustainable Agriculture, 2019
Heterosis is often utilized as a success indicator in a crossbreeding program. It is defined as the deviation of the crossbred means relative to their parental breeds.

Selection and Fitting of Mixed Models in Sugarcane Yield Trials

open access: yesAgriculture, 2022
Mixed models are a useful tool for the analysis of sugarcane field trials in which sugarcane varieties are allocated in different locations and phenotypic traits are evaluated in the same experimental unit (plot) over time. One challenge to analyze these

Multi-trait selection in multi-environments for performance and stability in cassava genotypes

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Genotype-environment interaction (GEI) presents challenges when aiming to select optimal cassava genotypes, often due to biased genetic estimates. Various strategies have been proposed to address the need for simultaneous improvements in multiple traits,
