Bayesian methods for jointly estimating genomic breeding values of one continuous and one threshold trait
Genomic selection has become a useful tool for animal and plant breeding. Currently, genomic evaluation is usually carried out using a single-trait model. However, a multi-trait model has the advantage of using information on the correlated traits, leading to more accurate genomic prediction. To date, joint genomic prediction for a continuous and a threshold trait using a multi-trait model is s...
متن کاملBayesian threshold-linear model for genetic evaluation of direct and maternal calving traits in Iranian primiparous Holstein cattle
The main objective of this study was to estimate the genetic parameters for multi-trait evaluation of birth weight (BW), gestation length (GL) and calving difficulty (CD) in first-parity Iranian Holstein dairy cattle. The data included 29,950 calving records collected during 1995 to 2014 by the Animal Breeding and Improvement Center of Iran. A threshold-linear sire-maternal grandsire model was ...
متن کاملStatistical classification methods for estimating ancestry using morphoscopic traits.
Ancestry assessments using cranial morphoscopic traits currently rely on subjective trait lists and observer experience rather than empirical support. The trait list approach, which is untested, unverified, and in many respects unrefined, is relied upon because of tradition and subjective experience. Our objective was to examine the utility of frequently cited morphoscopic traits and to explore...
متن کاملEstimating Steatosis Prevalence in Overweight and Obese Children: Comparison of Bayesian Small Area and Direct Methods
Background Often, there is no access to sufficient sample size to estimate the prevalence using the method of direct estimator in all areas. The aim of this study was to compare small area’s Bayesian method and direct method in estimating the prevalence of steatosis in obese and overweight children. Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional study, was conducted on 150 overweight and obese ...
متن کاملBayesian Methods for Estimating Tool Position of an Industrial Manipulator
State estimation of a flexible industrial manipulator is presented using experimental data. The problem is formulated in a Bayesian framework where the extended Kalman filter and particle filter are used. The filters use the joint positions on the motor side of the gearboxes as well as the acceleration at the end-effector as measurements and estimates the corresponding joint angles on the arm s...
