Iteratively Reweighted Least Squares Fiducial Interval for Variance in Unbalanced Variance Components Model

open access: yesMathematics
The objective of this work is to propose the iteratively reweighted least squares concept to form a fiducial generalized pivotal quantity of the between-group variance component for the unbalanced variance components model.

Likelihood inference for small variance components

open access: yes, 2000
In this paper, we develop likelihood-based methods for making inferences about the components of variance in a general normal mixed linear model. In particular, we use local asymptotic approximations to construct confidence intervals for the components ...

Genetic Parameters and Trait Associations in Wheat Under Drought and Low Nitrogen Conditions

open access: yesNitrogen
Drought and low nitrogen stress are the leading cause of low crop production and productivity worldwide. Developing drought-tolerant wheat germplasm resilient to low nitrogen conditions is essential through genetic enhancement and selection for novel ...

Estimation of variance components from the measurement in a geodetic network [PDF]

open access: yesActa Montanistica Slovaca, 2005
The precision of geodetic instruments used for precise measurements in geodetic networks is described by the dispersion σ2 or the standard deviation σ. Some of geodetic instruments, like electro optic range-finder and its accuracy are characteristized by

Partitioning variance in reproductive success, within years and across lifetimes

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2023
Variance in reproductive success (sk2, with k = number of offspring) plays a large role in determining the rate of genetic drift and the scope within which selection acts. Various frameworks have been proposed to parse factors that contribute to sk2, but

Controlling the Overfitting of Heritability in Genomic Selection through Cross Validation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In genomic selection (GS), all the markers across the entire genome are used to conduct marker-assisted selection such that each quantitative trait locus of complex trait is in linkage disequilibrium with at least one marker.

An Asymmetric Area Model-Based Approach for Small Area Estimation Applied to Survey Data

open access: yesRevstat Statistical Journal, 2021
The Birnbaum–Saunders distribution is asymmetrical and has received considerable attention due to its properties and its relationship with the normal distribution. In this paper, we propose a methodology for estimating the mean of small areas based on a

Combined Static and Motion Features for Deep-Networks Based Activity Recognition in Videos

open access: yes, 2018
Activity recognition in videos in a deep-learning setting---or otherwise---uses both static and pre-computed motion components. The method of combining the two components, whilst keeping the burden on the deep network less, still remains uninvestigated ...

Why and When Are Evidence‐Based Interventions Adopted in Paediatric Supportive Care? A Qualitative Exploration of the Determinants of Photobiomodulation Implementation

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Oral mucositis is a common and debilitating side effect of childhood cancer and stem cell transplant treatments. It affects the quality of life of children and young people (CYP) and places a strain on services. Photobiomodulation is recommended for oral mucositis prevention in international guidance but is poorly implemented in UK ...
