REDA: A New Methodology to Validate Sensor Systems for Person Detection under Variable Environmental Conditions.

Perception of the environment by sensor systems in variable environmental conditions is very complex due to the interference influences. In the field of autonomous machines or autonomous vehicles, environmental conditions play a decisive role in safe person detection. A uniform test and validation method can support the manufacturers of sensor systems during development and simultaneously provide proof of functionality.

The performance of phenomic selection depends on the genetic architecture of the target trait.

The phenomic predictive ability depends on the genetic architecture of the target trait, being high for complex traits and low for traits with major QTL. Genomic selection is a powerful tool to assist breeding of complex traits, but a limitation is the costs required for genotyping. Recently, phenomic selection has been suggested, which uses spectral data instead of molecular markers as predictors.
