Predicting genetic merit in Harnali sheep using machine learning techniques.

Tropical animal health and production
Machine learning techniques offer promising avenues for enhancing animal breeding programs by leveraging genomic and phenotypic data to predict valuable traits accurately. In this study, we evaluated seven machine learning algorithms viz., K-nearest ...

Ethical and security challenges in AI for forensic genetics: From bias to adversarial attacks.

Forensic science international. Genetics
Forensic scientists play a crucial role in assigning probabilities to evidence based on competing hypotheses, which is fundamental in legal contexts where propositions are presented usually by prosecution and defense. The likelihood ratio (LR) is a w...

Machine learning for genomic and pedigree prediction in sugarcane.

The plant genome
Sugarcane (Saccharum spp.) plays a crucial role in global sugar production; however, the efficiency of breeding programs has been hindered by its heterozygous polyploid genomes. Considering non-additive genetic effects is essential in genome predicti...

Development of a multi-use decision support system for scientific management and breeding of sheep.

Scientific reports
As the challenges of food insecurity and population explosion become more pressing, there is a dire need to revamp the existing breeding and animal management systems. This can be achieved by the introduction of technology for efficiency and the impr...

The application of machine learning to predict genetic relatedness using human mtDNA hypervariable region I sequences.

PloS one
Human identification of unknown samples following disaster and mass casualty events is essential, especially to bring closure to family and friends of the deceased. Unfortunately, victim identification is often challenging for forensic investigators ...

Use of machine learning to classify high-risk variants of uncertain significance in lamin A/C cardiac disease.

Heart rhythm
BACKGROUND: Variation in lamin A/C results in a spectrum of clinical disease, including arrhythmias and cardiomyopathy. Benign variation is rare, and classification of LMNA missense variants via in silico prediction tools results in a high rate of va...

Predicting affinity ties in a surname network.

PloS one
From administrative registers of last names in Santiago, Chile, we create a surname affinity network that encodes socioeconomic data. This network is a multi-relational graph with nodes representing surnames and edges representing the prevalence of i...

genoDraw: A Web Tool for Developing Pedigree Diagrams Using the Standardized Human Pedigree Nomenclature Integrated with Biomedical Vocabularies.

AMIA ... Annual Symposium proceedings. AMIA Symposium
The integration of genetic information in current clinical routine has raised a need for tools to exploit family genetic knowledge. On the clinical side, an application for managing and visualizing pedigree diagrams could provide genetics specialists...

Harnessing Population Pedigree Data and Machine Learning Methods to Identify Patterns of Familial Bladder Cancer Risk.

Cancer epidemiology, biomarkers & prevention : a publication of the American Association for Cancer Research, cosponsored by the American Society of Preventive Oncology
BACKGROUND: Relatives of patients with bladder cancer have been shown to be at increased risk for kidney, lung, thyroid, and cervical cancer after correcting for smoking-related behaviors that may concentrate in some families. We demonstrate a novel ...
