AVANCE GENÉTICO ESPERADO PARA APTITUD COMBINATORIA. MODELO CON ALELOS MÚLTIPLES Y PROBADORES HETEROCIGÓTICOS
Authors: Sahagún-Castellanos Jaime
Published: August 2022

La teoría de la predicción de la respuesta a la selección para aptitud combinatoria (R) ha sido basada en un modelo de dos alelos por locus. Cuando por su origen, una población no sea compatible con este modelo, la predicción de la respuesta a la selección puede ser errónea y cancelar la oportunidad de estudiar el mecanismo de la acción génica asociada al multialelismo. En este trabajo se estudió la R derivada con base en un modelo de alelos múltiples para la población base (PB) y un individuo heterocigótico de genotipo AU AV (H) como probador. Se encontró que: 1) Para PB la covarianza de la regresión de progenies obtenidas por la recombinación de líneas seleccionadas (PR) sobre los mestizos (M) y la varianza genética de los mestizos (σ 2M ) fueron iguales y sólo involucraron la varianza aditiva ( 2 σA ) y R siempre fue positiva; 2) Para H, la covarianza de la regresión incluyó 2 σA y dos covarianzas entre valores aditivos y desviaciones de dominancia de mestizos. Estas covarianzas pueden producir valores negativos, de R. Además de los tres parámetros anteriores, 2 σM incluyó dos varianzas de desviaciones de dominancia de mestizos ( σ2DMu yσ2DMv ) la covarianza σ DMu,DMv;3). Con sólo acción génica aditiva los dos probadores produjeron la misma R, y 4). Cuando los resultados del modelo con multialelismo se redujeron al caso de dos alelos, en general se produjo la misma información que ya se conocía para dos alelos. Además, se encontró que la R es negativa si con sobredominancia positiva, d = ka (k> 1), [(1+k)/(2k)] <p< 1 y si con sobredominancia negativa d = ka (k<-1), 0<p<[(1+k)/(2k)]. Aquí, p, d y a son la frecuencia de Al y los valores genotípicos de AlA2 y A1A1, respectivamente.

Published: August 2022

El presente estudio se llevó a cabo con el propósito de evaluar pérdidas de rendimiento de grano de trigo ocasionadas por roya lineal amarilla (Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici) y valorar la efectividad de la selección masal visual recurrente para generar genotipos con alto rendimiento de grano y resistentes a la roya lineal amarilla. Se evaluaron los ciclos de selección C0 a C7 generados mediante la metodología MSFRS (Male Sterile Facilited Recurrent Selection), alternada en Chapingo, Estado de México (verano) y Roque, Guanajuato (invierno), de 1992 a 1997. En el ciclo de cultivo de otoño - invierno (0I) 1998-99 se realizaron cuatro experimentos en dos fechas de siembra (1 y 16 de diciembre): dos bajo la presión de la roya lineal amarilla y dos libres de ella. El tratamiento con protección contra la roya lineal amarilla mediante fungicida rindió en promedio 30 % más grano por unidad de superficie que el tratamiento sin protección. Al considerar las cinco mejores familias de cada ciclo de selección, se observó que las de mayor rendimiento de grano fueron las más susceptibles a roya lineal amarilla; sin embargo, al considerar las 240 familias incluidas en el estudio, es posible detectar variedades con alto potencial de rendimiento y resistentes a la roya lineal amarilla.

Published: August 2022

En frijol, los genotipos de respuesta neutral al fotoperiodo muestran adaptación a diferentes latitudes, mientras que los materiales sensibles exhiben mayor adaptación en sitios altos, como el Altiplano de México. Para conocer la respuesta al fotoperiodo de 10 familias F6 de frijol, derivadas de progenitores contrastantes en su respuesta al fotoperiodo y seleccionadas por su alto potencial de rendimiento, fueron sembradas en el campo en Zacatepec, Morelos en el ciclo de invierno 1996-1997, y en campo e invernadero en Chapingo, México en el verano de 1996 y 1997 (cinco ambientes). Los materiales se evaluaron bajo un diseño de bloques completos al azar con tres repeticiones. En el campo la evaluación se hizo bajo fotoperiodo natural de 13.2 horas luz promedio y en el invernadero se aplicaron dos tratamientos de fotoperiodo: 8 y 18 h. Con los datos de floración obtenidos en el invernadero se calculó la tasa de desarrollo de floración, la que a su vez permitió calcular el índice de sensibilidad al fotoperiodo. Se encontró que nueve de las 10 familias evaluadas y la variedad Carioca (C) resultaron insensibles al fotoperiodo, y sólo la familia (PV x C)-6 y las variedades Pinto Villa (PV) y Tlaxcala 475 (T) fueron sensibles. Las familias (PV x C)-3, (PV x C)- 5, (C x T)-8 y (C x T)-10, todas de respuesta neutral, fueron las de mayor rendimiento en el campo, con 277 a 302 g m-2; en cambio, la variedad Tlaxcala 475 y la familia (PV x C)-6, ambas sensibles al fotoperiodo, mostraron los rendimientos más bajos (128 y 213 g m-2 , respectivamente). Las familias de respuesta neutral al fotoperiodo se comportaron más estables en los días a la floración y en su rendimiento de grano que las familias sensibles.

Published: August 2022

Con el propósito de evaluar la estacionalidad del crecimiento del pasto ballico perenne (Lolium perenne L.) en la zona templada, se llevó acabo un estudio en una pradera irrigada en el Campo Experimental del Colegio de Postgraduados, Montecillo, Texcoco, México. Los tratamientos consistieron en cortes sucesivos a intervalos de siete días, durante un ciclo de crecimiento de ocho semanas distribuidos en un diseño completamente al azar con tres repeticiones, en las cuatro estaciones del año entre 1998 y 1999. Al inicio del estudio, se aplicó un corte de uniformización a 5 cm en 24 parcelas (3 x 3 m), y se cosecharon tres cuadros de 0.1 m2, a ras de suelo, para determinar el forraje residual. Posteriormente, cada semana se cosecharon en la misma forma tres parcelas diferentes. La acumulación de forraje, composición botánica y morfológica, relación hoja:tallo y hoja:no hoja, índice de área foliar (IAF) y tasa de crecimiento (TC) se analizaron por los procedimientos Mixed y GLM de SAS, para mediciones repetidas. La acumulación de materia seca y la TC aumentaron rápidamente después del corte de uniformización, hasta alcanzar un nivel de equilibrio conforme la cantidad de hojas verdes en la pradera llegó a un máximo. Primavera (1983 kg MS ha-1) superó en 16 % a Verano, 39 % a Otoño y 63 % a Invierno. El tiempo requerido para alcanzar el máximo rendimiento varió conforme a la estación del año, en el orden siguiente: primavera (4 semanas), verano (5), otoño e invierno (6). Una vez que la pradera alcanzó este punto, la tasa de crecimiento comenzó a declinar como consecuencia de un aumento progresivo en material muerto y tallos. Estos incrementos fueron más altos en primavera y más bajos en invierno. Los resultados de este estudio sugieren que el manejo del ballico perenne en el municipio de Texcoco, para obtener una máxima producción y utilización de forraje, debe realizarse cuando se ha alcanzado la mayor biomasa de hojas verdes, a 5, 6, 6 y 4 semanas en verano, otoño, invierno y primavera, respectivamente.

ciudad andina. Acontecimiento y conceptualización. Antecedentes y contextos para estudiar la ciudad globalizada y su cambio
Authors: Páez Barrera Oswaldo
Published: August 2022

Expone instrumentos metodológicos para analizar el surgimiento de la ciudad andina moderna a partir de los orígenes precolombinos de Quito, Cuenca, Latacunga y Manta que aún incidirían en su presencia urbana. Su presente, afectado por la globalización, llevó a pensar la ciudad andina cómo fenómeno nuevo que no olvida sus pasados. Se verifica cómo el ciclo capitalista iniciado en el siglo XVI implantó formas urbanas que aprovecharon estructuras existentes, pero creó condiciones para su superación conceptual y práctica. El estudio usó información arqueológica y cartográfica y, en su trabajo de campo, recursos ae- rofotogramétricos georreferenciados para verificar hipótesis sobre sus tramas primigenias para contribuir al debate sobre el tema y encontrar síntesis sobre la continuidad y discontinuidad físico-urbana de estas ciudades. El conocimiento histórico crítico, más allá de lo descriptivo geométrico, llevó a conceptualizar la ciudad andina moderna dentro de la totalidad físico-social en la perspectiva de su transformación.

The objective of this research is to analyze the potential efficiency of the production process due to the redesign of the dining table product. The research methodology uses desain for manufacturing (DFM) technique which is divided into three stages: (1) analysis of the production cost of the parts of a folding dining table, (2) analysis of the decrease in a folding dining table's production cost, and (3) analysis of the production efficiency of the impact of folding dining table product development. Based on the results of data processing and analysis, it is concluded that the elements of the production cost of folding dining table products consist of variable costs, fixed costs, and overhead costs. Variable costs consist of the cost of raw materials and additional materials used. Fixed costs consist of depreciation costs or depreciation of the machines used and labor costs and the last is overhead costs which consist of electricity costs. The implementation of DFM in the redesign of the dining table product shows a decrease in component costs by 14,9% and reduction in assembly costs by 33,3% due to a reduction in the number of components. Changes in the type and amount of raw materials lead to time efficiency in the assembly and material handling processes because it is lighter. The addition of the function of the dining table into a folding dining table that can be used as a mirror increases the performance of the dining table product.

ntroduction: Acute cholecystitis is the most common complication in a gallstone disease and remains one of the most common medical
problems leading to surgical intervention. The clinical picture of the patients with acute cholecystitis is further complicated by deranged liver
function tests due to inammatory process induced by cholecystitis.74Liver damage in patients with gallstones is thought to be the result of chronic
extra hepatic biliary tract obstruction with or without repeated episodes of cholangitis.69However, a few studies have reported the presence of
hepatocellular injury in patients with acute cholecystitis without choledocholithiasis.70,38We conducted this study further to demonstrate any
relation of gallstones with deranged liver function. This tertiary clinic based prospective observational study on 100 patients of gallMethods:

Authors: Sarmalkar Meenal , Abhakumari Abhakumari , Mehendale Madhuri
Published: August 2022

Background: Preterm delivery is a major obstetric complication and a leading cause of neonatal mortality and morbidity. In India, the reported
incidence of preterm labour is 10-15%. Premature babies are at risk of many immediate and long-term complications. Objectives: With this
background, the present study was aimed to analyse the clinical conditions based on maternal, fetal and placental etiology associated with preterm
birth. This prospective observational study was conducted in 250 consecutive women who presented with preterm labour between 28 toMethod:
<37 weeks in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology at tertiary care hospital during a period from April 2019 to September 2020. Mode of
delivery, various maternal risk factors and neonatal outcome were noted. The incidence of preterm births was found to be 16.15%.Results:
Maximum number of patients belonged to third gravida group (40.4%). Most common presentation on admission was pain in abdomen (74.8%)
and most common associated risk factor was infection (50.8%%) followed by preterm premature rupture of membrane (PPROM) (24.8%). All
patients received steroid (betamethasone) before delivery. 90% of patients delivered vaginally and 31.2% of babies required NICU admission. The
mean baby weight, mean APGAR Score (5min) and mean NICU stay was 2.41±0.36 kgs, 8.94±0.33 and 9.08±5 days respectively. Conclusion:
Preterm labour and birth continue to be a common occurrence, resulting in signicant newborn death and morbidity, as well as nancial burden on
families and hospitals. This incidence can be lowered by early identication of proven risk factors with the assistance of universal and appropriate
prenatal care. Strengthening the referral system so that high risk patients are managed in tertiary obstetric units with level III NICU facilities will
improve the neonatal outcome of these babies.

Introduction: The link between a mother and her unborn child normally develops from the moment they are conceived. Two-thirds of women may
report a strong maternal relationship by the time their baby moves for the rst time at 18 to 25 weeks. The developing fetus is completely reliant on
her mother for all of her basic requirements; the fetus can hear and respond to the mother's heartbeat and voice, as well as touch and movement. The
aim of the study was to assess the perception of maternal fetal attachment during antenatal periods among antenatal mothers by using Hindi version
of MAAS (19-items). Methods: The quantitative research approach with a pre- experimental one group post test design was selected. 60 antenatal
mothers, 31-40 weeks of gestation were selected purposive sampling technique from Jag Pradesh Chandra Hospital, Shastri Park Delhi. MAAS
(19-items) Hindi version was used to collect the data. The data obtained was tabulated in Microsoft Excel Spread Sheet and was analyzed in terms
of objective of the study using descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: The ndings revealed that majority of the mothers were having very
good attachment (46.6%) with their fetus, followed by (6.6%) of the mother who were having excellent attachment to the fetus, whereas (33.3%)
good attachment and (13.3%) average attachment of the mothers to their fetus. The ndings revealed that the mean scores maternal fetal attachment
during antenatal periods among antenatal mothers is 74.6 is just around the middle of the scores range 54-95 indicating very good attachment of the
mothers to their fetus. Conclusion: The maternal antenatal attachment scale has been demonstrated to be an effective instrument for predicting
attachment between the mother and her unborn child, and it may be useful in diagnosing postnatal complications early on.

Distal shoe appliance (DSA) is an important tool in paediatric dentistry for space maintenance, when there is a premature loss of primary second
molar, for guiding the un-erupted permanent rst molar. The purpose of our case report is to discuss the design and fabrication of a modied DSA.
In this modied appliance, the primary mandibular incisors were bonded and the primary mandibular canines were banded which were used as
abutments for eruption guidance of un-erupted permanent mandibular molars. This appliance was retained in the oral cavity for 8 months until the
eruption of rst permanent molars on either side of the arch. It is therefore, a noteworthy and a novel design which can be used for eruption guidance
of permanent molars, if at all there be a clinical scenario where there are inadequate abutments due to early loss of all primary molars bilaterally.

Normal tension glaucoma (NTG) is a disease associated with normal intraocular pressure(IOP) (10 mmHg – 21 mmHg) that may lead to
irreversible blindness if misdiagnosed or left untreated over a period of time. The author observed a patient with NTG diagnosed for rst time in her
third trimester of pregnancy. The initial visual eld analysis results showed visual eld defects with normal IOP. Although the patient was known
case of Hypertension, a condition associated with optic nerve head damage, the patient's visual eld defects were found to have progressed by the
end of pregnancy. It is therefore important for ophthalmic professionals to apply due diligence when examining patients with NTG in order to
expedite intervention and prevention of visual impairment and blindness.
Using Satellite Data on Remote Transportation of Air Pollutants for PM2.5 Prediction in Northern Taiwan

Published: August 2022

We proposed RTP, a composite neural network model that captures knowledge from remote transportation pollution events (RTPEs) to improve the local PM2.5 prediction. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first deep learning work to include knowledge from remote pollutants for PM2.5 prediction. RTP consists of two neural network components: a pre-trained base model and STRI model. The base model captures knowledge from local factors that influence PM2.5 concentrations and STRI captures knowledge from RTPEs by learning spatial-temporal characteristics of Satellite base AOD data and weather features from remote areas. In addition, given the size of the STRI model, to facilitate training and improve results we divide the full STRI model into two components: STRI\_fe, which is used to extract spatial-temporal features from remote areas, and STRI\_p, which predicts local PM2.5 concentrations using both remote and local features. The prediction results from STRI\_p show that the prediction error is reduced when remote features are added to the model, demonstrating that the STRI model indeed captures knowledge from RTPEs. To characterize the occurrence of RTPEs in northern Taiwan, we also developed an algorithm to classify PM2.5 concentrations attributable to RTPEs. We use the STRI model for the prediction of two EPA stations located at the northern tip of Taiwan and apply the classification algorithm to the results. This yields improvements in accuracy when remote features are added to the model, which demonstrates the impact of RTPEs at the stations.

Published: August 2022

Deep Neural Networks (DDNs) have shown vulnerability to well-designed adversarial examples. Researchers in industry and academia have proposed many adversarial example defense techniques. However, none can provide complete robustness. The cutting-edge defense techniques offer partial reliability. Thus, complementing them with another layer of protection is a must, especially for mission-critical applications. This paper proposes a novel Online Selection and Relabeling Algorithm (OSRA) that opportunistically utilizes a limited number of crowdsourced workers to maximize the ML system’s robustness. OSRA strives to use crowdsourced workers effectively by selecting the most suspicious inputs and moving them to the crowdsourced workers to be validated and corrected. As a result, the impact of adversarial examples gets reduced, and accordingly, the ML system becomes more robust. We also proposed a heuristic threshold selection method that contributes to enhancing the prediction system’s reliability. We empirically validated our proposed algorithm and found that it can efficiently and optimally utilize the allocated budget for crowdsourcing. It is also effectively integrated with a state-of-the-art black-box defense technique, resulting in a more robust system. Simulation results show that OSRA can outperform a random selection algorithm by 60% and achieve comparable performance to an optimal offline selection benchmark. They also show that OSRA’s performance has a positive correlation with system robustness.
Graph Based Deep Learning for Spatial Reuse Optimization in Dense WLAN Deployments
Authors: Azeez Stephen , Henna Shagufta
Published: August 2022

The IEEE 802.11ax standard is designed to provide high-efficiency WLAN operating in dense deployment, with a focus on increasing robustness and uplink transmission.  IEEE 802.11ax aims to deliver self-configuration and self-adaptation capabilities for interference management techniques in dense deployments, to improve overall network conditions. The IEEE 802.11ax medium strives to intelligently use network allocation vectors (NAV), which block simultaneous transmission of neighboring co-existing access points from transmitting for a set period of time. Given an acceptable collision probability, this collision avoidance strategy tends to degrade network throughput and increase transmission delays since the medium is never completely exploited. In this paper, we propose affinityGNN, a graph neural network approach to actively optimize network co-existence transmission in a dense scenario. We introduce direct-affinityGNN which considers direct communications between IEEE802.11ax-compliant wireless systems and in contrast, skip-affinityGNN, which considers communication between IEEE802.11ax and Legacy devises by aggregating neural messages from direct and skip (two-hop) communicating neighbors in the dense wireless network deployment. Extensive experimental results not only show the superior performance of our proposed model over the state-of-the-art, but also demonstrate its potentially good interpretability and robustness for wireless network structure.
Integrating Machine Learning and Mathematical Optimization for Job Shop Scheduling
Authors: Liu Anbang , Luh Peter , Sun Kailai
Published: August 2022

Job-shop scheduling is an important but difficult integer optimization problem for low-volume and high-variety manufacturing, with solutions required to be obtained quickly at the beginning of each shift. In view of the increasing demand of customized products, problem sizes are growing. Machine learning (ML) is a promising solution methodology. Direct learning solutions, however, is difficult because of the NP-hard nature of the problem. In this paper, ML and the decomposition and coordination approach of Surrogate Lagrangian Relaxation are synergistically integrated. ML is used to learn and predict “good enough” solutions of part subproblems, which are not NP-hard. Nevertheless, the task is still challenging in view of the quite different parts to be scheduled from shift to shift, the complicated tardiness-related objective function, and many part-level constraints. To address these issues, a generic pointer network is developed for all parts after part subproblems are innovatively reformulated to be at a much simplified and streamlined level. The pointer network is also novelly enhanced with a masking mechanism so that predictions satisfy all part-level constraints. Numerical results demonstrate that the enhanced pointer network can learn and predict subproblem solutions well, and that near-optimal solutions of large problems are efficiently obtained. The performance of the method is expected to further improve through continual learning.  
Deep Learned Ground Penetrating Radar Subsurface Features for Robot Localization

Published: August 2022

Sensors help robots perceive their environment and localize themselves. Determining a robot’s location requires a range of sensing systems. Depending on accuracy criteria and navigation conditions, robot localization sensors can differ. Common sensors for robot localization include encoders, GPS, cameras, LIDARs, and IMUs. Traditional sensors are not capable enough in changing environments and uneven terrain. In this paper, we propose a method based on deep learning to use the subsurface features obtained through a Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) to estimate the odometry of a robot. This proposed method does not rely on visual features or the distance gathered from wheel encoders. The proposed approach was evaluated on a publicly available dataset, and the evaluation results show that the proposed method can be used for robot localization without the need for odometry from wheel encoders.
