Dear all So here's a question for you: Say we know that the underlying structure of a system is very complex, would a predictor built from a complex model deliver better accuracy than one built from a simple model? Sven Stringer will be discussing this issue next week, using the following paper as a basis for the meeting: "Genome-enabled prediction of genetic values using radial basis function neural networks" González-Camacho et al (2012) Theoretical Applied Genetics (DOI 10.1007/s00122-012-1868-9) As usual: Time - 11am Thursday 24 May Place - 7th floor seminary room, QBI I can hardly wait. See you there Gib
