Whether we are predisposed to particular diseases depends to a large extent on the countless variants in our genome. However, particularly in the case of genetic variants that only rarely occur in the ...

Researchers have used a genetic learning algorithm to identify optimal pitch profiles for the blades of vertical-axis wind turbines, which despite their high energy potential, have until now been ...

Scientists in China used computer analyses to identify two genes driving pulmonary arterial hypertension that may prove a ...

For many diseases and chronic conditions, an individual's genes play a role in their likelihood of developing the disease. While some inherited diseases, such as cystic fibrosis or sickle cell anemia, ...

Scientists in Spain have used genetic algorithms to optimize a feedforward artificial neural network for the prediction of energy generation of PV systems. Genetic algorithms use “parents” and ...

New screening tools: Hospitals are piloting tablet-based cognitive exams and AI-driven brain scan analysis to spot Alzheimer’s signs invisible to human observers. Genetic risk insight: Patients can ...

EPFL researchers developed optimal pitch profiles for vertical-axis wind turbines using a genetic learning algorithm. The new pitch profiles resulted in a 200% increase in turbine efficiency and a 77% ...
