Predicting genotypic values associated with gene interactions using neural networks: A simulation study for investigating factors affecting prediction accuracy
Abstract:Genomic prediction has been applied to various species of plants and livestock to enhance breeding efficacy. Neural networks including deep neural networks are attractive candidates to predict phenotypic values. However, the properties of neural networks in predicting non-additive effects have not been clarified. In this simulation study, factors affecting the prediction of genetic values associated with gene interactions (i.e., epistasis) were investigated using multilayer perceptron. The results suggested th… Show more
