To facilitate precision medicine and whole-genome annotation, we developed a machine-learning technique that scores how strongly genetic variants affect RNA splicing, whose alteration contributes to many diseases. Analysis of more than 650,000 intron...
The multiple traveling salesman problem (MTSP) is an important combinatorial optimization problem. It has been widely and successfully applied to the practical cases in which multiple traveling individuals (salesmen) share the common workspace (city ...
Biological outcomes are governed by multiple genetic and environmental factors that act in concert. Determining multifactor interactions is the primary topic of interest in recent genetics studies but presents enormous statistical and mathematical ch...
Hyper-heuristics are search methodologies that aim to provide high-quality solutions across a wide variety of problem domains, rather than developing tailor-made methodologies for each problem instance/domain. A traditional hyper-heuristic framework ...

Activity recognition of an elderly person can be used to provide information and intelligent services to health care professionals, carers, elderly people, and their families so that the elderly people can remain at homes independently. This study in...
Accurate bacterial gene prediction is essential for understanding microbial functions and advancing biotechnology. Traditional methods based on sequence homology and statistical models often struggle with complex genetic variations and novel sequence...
For important food crops such as the common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris, L.), global demand continues to outpace the rate of genetic gain for quantitative traits. In this study, we leveraged the multi-environment trial (MET) dataset from the cooperative...
Achieving significant genetic gains in grain yield (GY) in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) requires optimization of the key biomass partitioning traits such as spike partitioning index (SPI) and fruiting efficiency (FE). However, traditional manual phen...
Genomic prediction (GP) aims to predict the breeding values of multiple complex traits, usually assumed to be multivariate normally distributed by the largely used statistical methods, thus imposing linear genetic relationships between traits. Althou...
Phylogenetic inference aims at reconstructing the tree describing the evolution of a set of sequences descending from a common ancestor. The high computational cost of state-of-the-art maximum likelihood and Bayesian inference methods limits their us...
