Genomic prediction (GP) is an emerging data driven technology for plant breeding, which provides predictive phenotypes or breeding values of crops based on both genomic and environmental information.
The prediction of wheat yield (Triticum aestivum) is a Statistically and Machine learning challenging problem due to high-dimensional data structures genotype-by-environment (G×E) and other unknown factors to predict the flowering time (heading date).
Sex differences in the lifetime risk and expression of disease are well-known. Preclinical research targeted at improving treatment, increasing health span, and reducing the financial burden of health care, has mostly been conducted on male animals and cells.
The Mathematical Data Science Centre Seminar Series presents An Entropic Frank-Wolfe Method with Dr James Nichols. (BDSI). The Frank-Wolfe algorithm is an optimisation method for finding the minimum or maximum of a differentiable function on a convex set.
RISER performs selective rejection of molecules during direct RNA sequencing by identifying RNA classes directly from nanopore signals with deep learning and communicating with the sequencing hardware in real time.
Evaluating crop varieties across diverse environments is crucial yet statistically challenging due to complex genotype-by-environment (G×E) interactions, high-dimensional data structures, and frequently unbalanced trial designs.
Given a point cloud in Euclidean space and a fixed length scale, we can create simplicial complexes (called Rips complexes) to represent that point cloud using the pairwise distances between the points.
This talk will present ongoing efforts to enhance sperm analysis using artificial intelligence, focusing on improving precision and consistency in motility and morphological assessments—key metrics in reproductive health studies.
Originally from the wild jungles of Borneo, David somehow found his way to becoming a research scientist at the Irradiation Immunity Interaction (i-Cube) Laboratory at the John Curtin School of Medical Research (JCSMR).
