Bivariate sire models with relationships among sires were used to estimate parameters.
The structural model with relationships between structure, process, and outcome reasonably represented quality systems at hospital departments.
A model with relationships between the structure, process, and outcome of quality systems was developed from the results of an interview study[ 4].
The model with relationships between structure, process, and outcome was found to be a reasonable representation of quality systems at hospital departments (p = 0.095, indicating no significant differences between the model and the data set).
To verify the estimated coefficients of the fitted model for N = 42, we deleted the direct effects of the exogenous variables on the endogenous variables, resulting in an estimated ASE model with relationships between the endogenous variables only.
Gengler et al. [ 9] suggested that missing genotypes could be modelled using the usual mixed model methodology with relationship matrix A. We now combine that idea with the genomic relationship matrix on the form (1).
In some cases, it is necessary to replace these air quality models with source receptor relationships, to mimic in a faster way the link between emissions and concentrations.
Previous efforts to describe biofiltration use continuum models with empirical relationships to describe air-flow in the biofilter, and conventional diffusion/reaction equations to describe processes in the biofilm.
Granularity enhancements around IFNG and nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain containing 2 (NOD2), both components of inflammatory signaling, were also added to augment the network models with causal relationships proximal to COPD.
Note that model (2) with relationships as presented here is the most obvious generalisation of the Wei and van der Werf model in Eq. (1) from two to three breeds since base individuals are assumed unrelated.
