Pythium species are the most common seedling disease pathogens isolated from rice in producers’ fields in Arkansas. These studies examined the value of Pythium resistance in breeding lines with cold tolerance in early-season planting environments. These lines show promise for reliable stand establishment in Arkansas. The breeding line RU0701124 had more plants/acre and greater relative root wei...

Population genetic parameters, direct and maternal breeding value, the trend in weaning weight of Limousin beef cattle calves were estimated period 1992-2019. Data 19 764 (15 437 purebred 4 327 crossbred) computed. Crossbred sired by bulls from Simmental dams. Calves question came 37 herds 240 sires Hungary. DFREML MTDFREML software was used for estimation population BLUP animal model value est...

Estimation of gold reserves and resources has been of interest to mining engineers and geologists for ages. The existence of outlier values shows the economic part of the deposits subject to the fact that don’t depend on the human or technical errors. The presence of these high values causes a pseudo dramatically increment in variance estimation of economical blocks when applying conventional m...

Genomic selection (GS) identifies individuals for inclusion in breeding programs based on the sum of their estimated marker effects or genomic estimated breeding values (GEBVs). Due to significant correlation between GEBVs and true breeding values, this has resulted in enhanced rates of genetic gain as compared to traditional methods of selection. Three extensions to GS, weighted genomic select...

How to efficiently explore in reinforcement learning is an open problem. Many exploration algorithms employ the epistemic uncertainty of their own value predictions -- for instance compute bonus or upper confidence bound. Unfortunately required difficult estimate general with function approximation. We propose estimation (EVE): a recipe that compatible sequential decision making and neural netw...

The genus Vitis (the grapevine) is a group of highly diverse, diploid woody perennial vines consisting of approximately 60 species from across the northern hemisphere. It is the world's most valuable horticultural crop with ~8 million hectares planted, most of which is processed into wine. To gain insights into the use of wild Vitis species during the past century of interspecific grape breedin...
