In k-fold cross-validation, the original sample is randomly partitioned into k equal sized subsamples. Of the k subsamples, a single subsample is retained as the validation data for testing the model, and the remaining k − 1 subsamples are used as training data. The cross-validation process is then repeated k times, with each of the k subsamples used exactly once as the validation data. The k results can then be averaged to produce a single estimation. 2, record 1, English, - k%2Dfold%20cross%2Dvalidation

La validation croisée à k blocs, «k-fold cross-validation» : on divise l'échantillon original en k échantillons(ou «blocs»), puis on sélectionne un des k échantillons comme ensemble de validation pendant que les k − 1 autres échantillons constituent l'ensemble d’apprentissage. Après apprentissage, on peut calculer une performance de validation. Puis on répète l'opération en sélectionnant un autre échantillon de validation parmi les blocs prédéfinis. À l'issue de la procédure[, ] nous obtenons ainsi k scores de performances, un par bloc. La moyenne et l'écart type des k scores de performances peuvent être calculés pour estimer le biais et la variance de la performance de validation. 3, record 1, French, - validation%20crois%C3%A9e%20%C3%A0%20k%20blocs

... we saw that with genomics, there has been twice the amount of genetic gain realized for [protein] yield in terms of standard units. ... we can see that the combined gain for [protein] yield during the five years prior to genomics was 11.8 kg, or around 2.4 kg per year. In the past five years with genomics, the combined gain was 24 kg, or 4.8 kg per year. This means that females born in the last 5 years in a herd with average management are expected to have 305 day lactation yields that increase roughly 5 kg per year, on average. In this case, double the genetic gain translates into double the performance increase for protein yield. 3, record 2, English, - genetic%20gain

[...] nous observons qu'avec la génomique, le gain génétique réalisé pour le rendement en protéine exprimé en unités standard a doublé. [...] nous pouvons voir que le gain combiné pour le rendement en protéine pendant les cinq ans précédant la génomique était de 11, 8 kg ou d’environ 2, 4 kg par année. Cela signifie que les femelles nées au cours des cinq dernières années dans un troupeau doté d’une gestion moyenne devraient afficher des rendements en lait de 305 jours qui augmentent d’environ 5 kg par année, en moyenne. Dans ce cas, le double du gain génétique entraîne le double de l'augmentation de la performance en matière de rendement en protéine. 2, record 2, French, - gain%20g%C3%A9n%C3%A9tique
