Many genetic studies collect structured multivariate traits containing rich information across traits. We present a flexible multivariate linear mixed model for quantitative trait loci mapping (FlxQTL) for multiple correlated traits that adjusts for genetic relatedness and that models information on multiple environments or multiple timepoints using trait covariates. FlxQTL handles genetic mapping of multivariate traits faster with greater flexibility compared to previous implementations.

Matching journals

The top 4 journals account for 50% of the predicted probability mass.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
