Improving genomic prediction accuracy for meat tenderness in Nellore cattle using artificial neural networks.

Journal of animal breeding and genetics = Zeitschrift fur Tierzuchtung und Zuchtungsbiologie
The goal of this study was to compare the predictive performance of artificial neural networks (ANNs) with Bayesian ridge regression, Bayesian Lasso, Bayes A, Bayes B and Bayes Cπ in estimating genomic breeding values for meat tenderness in Nellore c...

Artificially intelligent scoring and classification engine for forensic identification.

Forensic science international. Genetics
Despite advances in genotyping technologies, traditional kinship analysis tools utilized in forensic identification have seen limited evolution and lack measures of accuracy. Here, we leverage artificial intelligence (AI) and extend the Elston-Stewar...

Cross-Generation Kinship Verification with Sparse Discriminative Metric.

IEEE transactions on pattern analysis and machine intelligence
Kinship verification is a very important technique in many real-world applications, e.g., personal album organization, missing person investigation and forensic analysis. However, it is extremely difficult to verify a family pair with generation gap,...

A case of apolipoprotein A-I deficiency due to carboxyl-terminal truncation.

Journal of clinical lipidology
Apolipoprotein A-I deficiency is a rare metabolic disease characterized by an impaired reverse cholesterol transport system resulting in excessive cholesterol accumulation. Here, we discuss a case of apolipoprotein A-I deficiency caused by a carboxyl...

Who's Who? Detecting and Resolving Sample Anomalies in Human DNA Sequencing Studies with Peddy.

American journal of human genetics
The potential for genetic discovery in human DNA sequencing studies is greatly diminished if DNA samples from a cohort are mislabeled, swapped, or contaminated or if they include unintended individuals. Unfortunately, the potential for such errors is...

Enhancing patient representation learning with inferred family pedigrees improves disease risk prediction.

Journal of the American Medical Informatics Association : JAMIA
BACKGROUND: Machine learning and deep learning are powerful tools for analyzing electronic health records (EHRs) in healthcare research. Although family health history has been recognized as a major predictor for a wide spectrum of diseases, research...

Predicting Diabetic Retinopathy Using a Machine Learning Approach Informed by Whole-Exome Sequencing Studies.

Biomedical and environmental sciences : BES
OBJECTIVE: To establish and validate a novel diabetic retinopathy (DR) risk-prediction model using a whole-exome sequencing (WES)-based machine learning (ML) method.

Discovering predisposing genes for hereditary breast cancer using deep learning.

Briefings in bioinformatics
Breast cancer (BC) is the most common malignancy affecting Western women today. It is estimated that as many as 10% of BC cases can be attributed to germline variants. However, the genetic basis of the majority of familial BC cases has yet to be iden...
