  1. 1. Growth and quality of silver birch with different improvement levels

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Southern Swedish Forest Research Centre

    Författare :Hanna Liebner; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Betula pendula Roth; genetic improvement; tree breeding; diameter growth; stem quality; branches quality;

    Sammanfattning : Silver birch is the most important broadleaf tree species in the context of wood production in Fennoscandia stating 12.9% of the total volume in Sweden (Nilsson et al., 2021). LÄS MER

  2. 2. Predicting Biomarkers/ Candidate Genes involved in iALL, using Rough Sets based Interpretable Machine Learning Model.

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Författare :Girish Pulinkala; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Machine Learning; Cancer; Oncology; Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia; Rough sets; Pathway analysis; Feature selection; Bioinformatics; Computational Biology.;

    Sammanfattning : Acute lymphoblastic leukemia is a hematological malignancy that gains a proliferative advantage and originates in the bone marrow. One of the more common genetic alterations in ALL is KMT2A-rearrangement which constitutes 80% of the cases of ALL in infants. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Developing a reproducible bioinformatics workflow for canine inherited retinal disease

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Författare :Melina Toni Marie Martin; [2023]
    Nyckelord :CanFam4; Nextflow; Inherited Retinal Degeneration; dog; whole-genome sequencing; bioinformatics;

    Sammanfattning : Inherited Retinal Degenerations (IRDs) are a heterogenous group of diseases which lead to vision impairment and can be found both in humans and in dogs. About 1 in 1,380 humans is estimated to suffer from an autosomal recessive IRD, which would be 5.5 million people worldwide, and many more are estimated to be unaffected carriers. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Evaluation of the impact of mitochondrial variation in the estimation of breeding values for dairy cattle

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Animal Breeding and Genetics

    Författare :Gabriela Mafra Fortuna; [2021]
    Nyckelord :mitogenome; variance components; milk yield; simulation;

    Sammanfattning : Mitochondria are independent cellular components responsible for cellular respiration. Through oxidative phosphorylation they convert Adenosine diphosphate and inorganic phosphate into Adenosine Triphosphate, ATP, the essential molecule sourced by all intracellular metabolic processes.

  5. 5. A scalable species-based genetic algorithm for reinforcement learning

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Författare :Anirudh Seth; [2021]
    Nyckelord :neuroevolution; model encoding; distributed speciation; reinforcement learning; genetic algorithms; evolutionary computing; neuroevolution; model encoding; förstärkningsinlärning; genetiska algoritmer; evolutionär databehandling;

    Sammanfattning : Existing methods in Reinforcement Learning (RL) that rely on gradient estimates suffer from the slow rate of convergence, poor sample efficiency, and computationally expensive training, especially when dealing with complex real-world problems with a sizable dimensionality of the state and action space. In this work, we attempt to leverage the benefits of evolutionary computation as a competitive, scalable, and gradient-free alternative to training deep neural networks for RL-specific problems.
