Flexible social inference facilitates targeted social learning when rewards are not observable
Groups coordinate more effectively when individuals are able to learn from others’ successes. But acquiring such knowledge is not always easy,...

A Guide to Phylogenomic Inference
Phylogenomics aims at reconstructing the evolutionary histories of organisms taking into account whole genomes or large fractions of genomes.... -
A robust and accurate single-cell data trajectory inference method using ensemble pseudotime
BackgroundThe advance in single-cell RNA sequencing technology has enhanced the analysis of cell development by profiling heterogeneous cells in...

Integration of Boolean and Bayesian Networks
One great challenge in biological study is to identify the complex gene regulation networks. For decades, scientists have developed different methods... -
Forensic biogeographical ancestry inference: recent insights and current trends
BackgroundAs a powerful complement to the paradigmatic DNA profiling strategy, biogeographical ancestry inference (BGAI) plays a significant part in...

BG2: Bayesian variable selection in generalized linear mixed models with nonlocal priors for non-Gaussian GWAS data
BackgroundGenome-wide association studies (GWASes) aim to identify single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with a given phenotype. A common...

The covariance environment defines cellular niches for spatial inference
A key challenge of analyzing data from high-resolution spatial profiling technologies is to suitably represent the features of cellular neighborhoods...

Species Tree Inference with SNP Data
While the inference of species trees from molecular sequences has become a common type of analysis in studies of species diversification, few... -
Bayesian approach for evaluation of lactation curve in cross bred cattle based on monthly and bimonthly test day milk yield
In field progeny testing program milk recording at monthly or bimonthly intervals and prediction of first lactation 305-day milk yield (FL305DMY)...

Gene regulation network inference using k-nearest neighbor-based mutual information estimation: revisiting an old DREAM
BackgroundA cell exhibits a variety of responses to internal and external cues. These responses are possible, in part, due to the presence of an...
