INTRODUCTION Gait variables are highly correlated and have a temporal dependence [1]. Principal component analysis (PCA) has been applied successfully to extract information from highly correlated data [2]. Interpretation of the PCs’ is challenging. An alternative is to use a graphical display called Biplot [3] that gives insights into relationships and trends of complex data sets. Our goal was...

genotype×environment interactions (geis) can affect breeding programs because they often complicate the evaluation and selection of superior genotypes. this drawback can be reduced by gaining insights into gei processes and genotype adaptation. the objectives of this research were to evaluate: (1) the yield stability of promising wheat lines across locations and (2) the relationship among the t...

the ammi and sreg gge   are among the models that effectively capture the additive and multiplicative components of genotype × environment interaction (gei) and provide meaningful interpretation of multi-environment trials’ data set in the breeding programs. the objective of this study was to assess the effect of gei on grain yield of barely advanced lines and exploit the positive gei effect us...

Principal Component Analysis (PCA from now on) is a multivariate data analysis technique used for many different purposes and in many different contexts. PCA is the basis for low rank least squares approximation of a data matrix, for finding linear combinations with maximum or minimum variance, for fitting bilinear biplot models, for computing factor analysis approximations, and for studying re...

Atomization and fountain formation is a well-known phenomenon that occurs when a focused ultrasound wave in liquid encounters an air interface. High intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) has been shown to fractionate a tissue into submicron-sized fragments in a process termed boiling histotripsy, wherein the focused ultrasound wave superheats the tissue at the focus, producing a millimetre-sized ...

Attractivity of robotic high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) is based largely on the non-invasive, extremely precise nature of this high-tech robotic therapy as well as its clean, radiation free, surgical, but nevertheless, bloodless character. Today, in urological oncology, HIFU is used clinically as a therapeutic tool for the treatment of prostate cancer. Experimentally it is investigated...

Genotype x environment interaction was evaluated under eight environments during lentil growing season of 2013/14 and 2014/15 for grain yield and their component characters of twenty one promising genotypes selected from previous trial of lentil. The variances estimated due genotype, environment and genotype x environment interaction were found to be different significantly for all the characte...
