machine learning for traits prediction

eMaize: Machine Learning for Traits Prediction

Heterosis is the improved or increased function of any biological quality in a hybrid offspring. We have studied yet the largest maize SNP dataset for traits prediction.

We develop linear and non-linear models which consider relationships between different hybrids as well as other effect. Specially designed model proved to be efficient and robust in prediction maize’s traits.

We proposed a new mixed linear model Mixed Ridge with Fast cross validation to pick parameters. We also propose Metric Regressor for few shot learning.
