New method uses DNN for genetic variant identification, controlling randomness and improving interpretability.
Genetic sequence data are well described by hidden Markov models (HMMs) in which latent states correspond to clusters of similar mutation patterns. Theory from statistical genetics suggests that these HMMs are nonhomogeneous (their transition probabilities vary along the chromosome) and have large support for self tran…
Optimizing a neural network's performance is a tedious and time taking process, this iterative process does not have any defined solution which can work for all the problems. Optimization can be roughly categorized into - Architecture and Hyperparameter optimization. Many algorithms have been devised to address this pr…
Paper uses AI to predict stock market volatility with neural networks and genetic algorithms.
In plant and animal breeding studies a distinction is made between the genetic value (additive + epistatic genetic effects) and the breeding value (additive genetic effects) of an individual since it is expected that some of the epistatic genetic effects will be lost due to recombination. In this paper, we argue that t…
