Evaluation and Selection of Biases in
In this introduction, we deene the term bias as it is used in machine learning systems. We motivate the importance of automated methods for evaluating and selecting biases using a framework of bias selection as search in bias and meta-bias spaces. Recent research in the eld of machine learning bias is summarized.
متن کاملAre covariation biases attributable to a priori expectancy biases?
Illusory correlation experiments indicate that people overestimate the association between random presentations of snake slides and shock, but do not overestimate the association between random presentations of slides of damaged and exposed electric outlets (DEEOs) and shock. To investigate whether reports of covariation biases might be attributable to expectancy biases, we had Ss rate the a pr...
متن کاملPotential Impact of Bovine Somatotropin on Dairy Sire Evaluation
Use of bovine somatotropin to increase product ion of milk and milk solids poses the problem of allocation within herd and implications for genetic evaluatat ion records with and without bovine somatotropin were simulated for different correlations between performance with and without t reatment and response to it. Resulting within-herd variances and accuracy and bias in sire evaluations were c...
متن کاملAssessing genetic gain, inbreeding, and bias attributable to different flock genetic means in alternative sheep sire referencing schemes.
Flocks participating in sire referencing schemes can achieve greater genetic gains than those achievable by within-flock selection. However, requirements for joining these schemes can be prohibitive to some producers. The objectives of this study were to determine whether less restrictive schemes or schemes of shorter duration could achieve rates of gain and reduce inbreeding as efficiently as ...
متن کاملEffect of Heterogeneity of Variance on Dairy Sire Evaluation
The effects of heterogeneity of variance among herds on dairy sire evaluation were examined. Data consisted of 111,196 first lactation Holstein production records of heifers calving in Ontario between 1978 and 1983. To account for selection, older sires without first crop daughters in the data were treated as fixed effects. Herds were classified into one of nine groups based on their estimated ...
