Selection signatures in worldwide sheep populations. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 The diversity of populations in domestic species offers great opportunities to study genome response to selection. The recently published Sheep HapMap dataset is a great example of characterization of the world wide genetic diversity in sheep.

Signatures of selection in recently domesticated macadamia [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2022 AbstractMacadamia is a high value nut crop that is recently domesticated, ideal for testing the effect of artificial selection. Here, we sequence the genome of Hawaiian cultivar ‘Kau’ and assemble into 794 Mb in 14 pseudo-chromosomes with 37,728 genes. Genome analysis reveals a whole-genome duplication event, occurred 46.8 million years ago.

Detecting signatures of selection on gene expression [PDF]
Nature Ecology & Evolution, 2022 A substantial amount of phenotypic diversity results from changes in gene expression levels and patterns. Understanding how the transcriptome evolves is therefore a key priority in identifying mechanisms of adaptive change. However, in contrast to powerful models of sequence evolution, we lack a consensus model of gene expression evolution. Furthermore,

Noise sensitivity signatures for model selection [PDF]
Proceedings of the 12th IAPR International Conference on Pattern Recognition (Cat. No.94CH3440-5), 2002 Presents a method for calculating the "noise sensitivity signature" of a learning algorithm which is based on scrambling the output classes of various fractions of the training data. This signature can be used to indicate a good (or bad) match between the complexity of the classifier and the complexity of the data and hence to improve the predictive ...

Genomics of Adaptations in Ungulates
Animals, 2021 Ungulates are a group of hoofed animals that have long interacted with humans as essential sources of food, labor, clothing, and transportation. These consist of domesticated, feral, and wild species raised in a wide range of habitats and biomes.

Selecting reference signatures for on-line signature verification [PDF]
, 1995 Personal stability in signing in one of the key factors for high-accuracy signature verification. In this paper the local stability of a dynamic signature is measured. The acccuracy of an on-line signature verification system is improved by selecting, among a set of specimens available, the subset of reference signatures which is near-optimal for ...

YODA: selecting signature oligonucleotides [PDF]
Bioinformatics, 2004 Selecting oligonucleotide probes for use in microarray design, and other applications requiring signature sequences, involves identifying sequences which will bind strongly to their intended target, while binding only weakly (or preferably, not at all) to non-target sequences which may be present in the hybridization reaction.
