Zusammenfassung

Understanding phenotypic variation, and in particular identifying the causal genetic or environmental regulators, is a major aim in biological investigations. The goal of this fellowship is to develop machine learning techniques to model the structure of the underlying complex system based on modern, high-dimensional phenotype datasets. First, the temporal structure of phenotypes that are recorded over time is addressed. By statistical modelling the smoothness of time series is exploited for identifying change points. Second, the structure of images, arising when digital pictures are u...
