Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study proposed flexible and high-performance statistical methods in bioinformatics and showed applications in medical, veterinary science and animal husbandry. Three objectives in this study were: A) constructing flexible statistical methods for multiple big data in life science (particularly, omics data), B) proposal of statistical methods and application to elucidate systems in animals and plants at molecular-, individual-, population-level, and C) constructing fast statistical methods. For A) and C), this study proposed fast hypothesis testing, high-performance statistical methods on each type of omics data. Their applications included finding diseases biomarkers. For B), we showed statistical applications in this field, particularly for dairy cows. Three types of focus in this study were 1) molecular level (milk composition, blood component, and each type of omics data), 2) individual level (medical records in cows, shape of crop), 3) population level (dairy herd etc).
