ImaGene: a convolutional neural network to quantify natural selection from genomic data

Abstract Background The genetic bases of many complex phenotypes are still largely unknown, mostly due to the polygenic nature of the traits and the small effect of each associated mutation. An alternative approach to classic association studies to determining such genetic bases is an evolutionary f...
