چکیده

The well-known simplex model is extended to a model that may be used for the genetic and environmental analysis of covariance structures. This "double" simplex structure can be specified as a LISREL model. It is shown that data which give rise to a simplex correlation structure, such as repeated-measures data, do not fit a factor-analysis model. The parameter estimation of the simplex model is illustrated with computersimulated twin data.

Factor and simplex models for repeated measures: application to two psychomotor measures of alcohol sensitivity in twins.

As part of a larger study, data on arithmetic computation and motor coordination were obtained from 206 twin pairs. The twins were measured once before and three times after ingesting a standard dose of alcohol. Previous analyses ignored the time-series structure of these data. Here we illustrate the application of simplex models for the genetic analysis of covariance structures in a repeated-m...

Exploring the Use of Random Regression Models withLegendre Polynomials to Analyze Clutch Sizein Iranian Native Fowl

Random regression models (RRM) have become common for the analysis of longitudinal data or repeated records on individual over time. The goal of this paper was to explore the use of random regression models with orthogonal / Legendre polynomials (RRL) to analyze new repeated measures called clutch size (CS) as a meristic trait for Iranian native fowl. Legendre polynomial functions of increasing...

Lifetimegenetic analysis of milk yield in Iranian Holstein cows using repeatability and pre-structured multivariate models

Milk yield records from 1st to 5th lactations of Iranian Holstein cows were analyzed using repeatability and a number of multivariate models that varied in additive genetic variance structure. A total of313,006 milk yield records were used. The records were obtained from 116,531 cows born between 2001 and 2005. The animals originated from 2,355 sires and 91,212 dams. A multivariate model with h...

A meta-analysis of the association of the ACE I/D variant and COVID-19 susceptibility and severity

Background: Several studies investigated the association of ACE I/D polymorphism with the risk and severity of COVID-19 infection.  However, the information in each of the published studies is limited, and the results were inconsistent or even contradictory. Accordingly, this meta-analysis evaluated the association between the ACE I/D polymorphism and COVID-19 susceptibility and severity. Metho...

Using MODEA and MODM with Different Risk Measures for Portfolio Optimization

The purpose of this study is to develop portfolio optimization and assets allocation using our proposed models. The study is based on a non-parametric efficiency analysis tool, namely Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). Conventional DEA models assume non-negative data for inputs and outputs. However, many of these data take the negative value, therefore we propose the MeanSharp-βRisk (MShβR) model...
