To test how much is gained by explicit modeling of correlations among SNPs induced by segments of recent shared ancestry (admixture LD), we also inferred the recent ancestry location using a naïve model that assumes all SNPs to be independent (as in Yang et al. 2012).
The objectives of this study were 1) to extend classical parametric WGP models, specifically RR-BLUP, BayesA, BayesB and BayesCπ, to explicitly account for residual heteroskedasticity, and 2) to assess potential gains in prediction accuracy by explicit modeling of residual variances as a function of various environmental or management factors in simulated and actual livestock performance data.
Sensitivity tests suggest that the problem is sufficiently serious to consider an alternative approach by either zonal modelling or explicit modelling of inactive turbulence effects.
The model afforded a major improvement in conceptual modelling by explicit simulation of the impacts of soil and climatic conditions on field-scale exports and by placing them in the context of landscape processes.
Here I investigate the statistical power of this method applied to a natural meadow and to virtual meadows created by a spatially explicit model of seagrass disturbance, regrowth, and colonization.
A major simplification in Higgs's treatment is achieved by removing any explicit modeling of the mutation of codons in protein-coding genes.
GraphAlignment differs from the above approaches [ 11, 21- 27] by two key features: (a) An explicit model of network evolution is used to infer alignment parameters from the data.
The first is to clarify the interpretation of half-lives derived from CSTD fitted with an exponential function by using a transparent and mathematically explicit model of the relationships among a) CSTD-based half-life, b) time trend of intake, and c) the human elimination half-life, in a postban period.
The second approach constructs an explicit model of the process by which the frequency of strategies change in the population and studies properties of the evolutionary dynamics within that model.
Here, we systematically assessed the electrostatic forces between SNARE complex, auxiliary proteins and fusing membranes by the nonlinear Poisson-Boltzmann equation using explicit models of membranes and proteins.
