Path Planning of Mobile Robots Based on a Multi-Population Migration Genetic Algorithm.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
In the field of robot path planning, aiming at the problems of the standard genetic algorithm, such as premature maturity, low convergence path quality, poor population diversity, and difficulty in breaking the local optimal solution, this paper prop...

How Machine Learning Methods Helped Find Putative Rye Wax Genes Among GBS Data.

International journal of molecular sciences
The standard approach to genetic mapping was supplemented by machine learning (ML) to establish the location of the rye gene associated with epicuticular wax formation (glaucous phenotype). Over 180 plants of the biparental F population were genotype...

Deep learning for population size history inference: Design, comparison and combination with approximate Bayesian computation.

Molecular ecology resources
For the past decades, simulation-based likelihood-free inference methods have enabled researchers to address numerous population genetics problems. As the richness and amount of simulated and real genetic data keep increasing, the field has a strong ...

Opening the Black Box: Interpretable Machine Learning for Geneticists.

Trends in genetics : TIG
Because of its ability to find complex patterns in high dimensional and heterogeneous data, machine learning (ML) has emerged as a critical tool for making sense of the growing amount of genetic and genomic data available. While the complexity of ML ...

Dimensionality reduction reveals fine-scale structure in the Japanese population with consequences for polygenic risk prediction.

Nature communications
The diversity in our genome is crucial to understanding the demographic history of worldwide populations. However, we have yet to know whether subtle genetic differences within a population can be disentangled, or whether they have an impact on compl...

ImaGene: a convolutional neural network to quantify natural selection from genomic data.

BMC bioinformatics
BACKGROUND: The genetic bases of many complex phenotypes are still largely unknown, mostly due to the polygenic nature of the traits and the small effect of each associated mutation. An alternative approach to classic association studies to determini...

Estimation of allele-specific fitness effects across human protein-coding sequences and implications for disease.

Genome research
A central challenge in human genomics is to understand the cellular, evolutionary, and clinical significance of genetic variants. Here, we introduce a unified population-genetic and machine-learning model, called inear llele-pecific election nferenc ...

Supervised machine learning reveals introgressed loci in the genomes of Drosophila simulans and D. sechellia.

PLoS genetics
Hybridization and gene flow between species appears to be common. Even though it is clear that hybridization is widespread across all surveyed taxonomic groups, the magnitude and consequences of introgression are still largely unknown. Thus it is cru...

Supervised Machine Learning for Population Genetics: A New Paradigm.

Trends in genetics : TIG
As population genomic datasets grow in size, researchers are faced with the daunting task of making sense of a flood of information. To keep pace with this explosion of data, computational methodologies for population genetic inference are rapidly be...
