And if everything is perfect, cold, technocratic, the maximum relationship you can have with this thing is, you own it.
The combined signal is mostly generated based on non-linear or linear transformation of individual SNP genotypes to extract the maximum relationship among them [ 8, 11– 18, 19] 19].
The maximum relationship between a testing animal and animals in the training set (maxr) also exhibited a strong association with rPEV (average correlation of 0.78).
Four measures of genomic relatedness were considered: a) An animal's mean relationship with the reference data set; b) its maximum relationship; c) its mean top 10 relationships and d) its mean top 100 relationships.
Based on the pedigree, small relationships between some animals of the different breeds occurred, with a maximum relationship of 0.035 between HF and GWH, 0.034 between HF and MRY, and 0.029 between GWH and MRY.
The authors of [ 31] found that the average of the top 10 relationships with training animals (ave10) was a better predictor of estimated accuracies than the maximum relationship, while the opposite was observed in this study.
The maximum relationship (maxr) and the average of the top 5 (ave5), 10 (ave10), 20 (and20) and 50 (ave50) relationships between each testing animal and all animals in the training set were calculated.
Note that keywords are linked with a conjunction connective (AND), instead of a disjunction connective (OR), to restrict the retrieved citations to the maximum relationship degree in each iteration.
The maximum relationship coefficient (amax) was calculated between each animal and all other animals in each of the five partitioned groups, so that each animal had five amax values.
The maximum relationship of an animal in the test data set with an animal in the reference data set ranged from 0.125 to 0.5 (no progeny included) for the 48 closely related test animals, from 0 to 0.125 for the 60 distantly related test animals, and the 53 unrelated test animals shared no pedigree relationship to the reference data set.
