Cosmic medallion portrait of VPIN_Italy_VPIN_24518, a German Pinscher
AI portrait
About this portrait

This portrait was algorithmically built from this dog's genome: their genotype at 8 morphology loci (coat length, curl, color, ear set, body size, head shape, skull, furnishings) plus their position within the 14,478-dog atlas. The same dog always reproduces the same portrait. A different dog with different alleles gets a different portrait.

VPIN_Italy_VPIN_24518

VPIN_Italy_VPIN_24518 is a German Pinscher from the Parker research cohort. One of 14,478 dogs who built the atlas.

VPIN_Italy_VPIN_24518's breed

VPIN_Italy_VPIN_24518 sits in the Golden Retriever cluster, with genome overlap to Labrador Retriever - sister breeds nearby in the atlas.

Breed similarity from non-negative least squares against 91 breed centroids in PCA-256 space, corrected for atlas sample-size imbalance. Without correction, Goldens (22% of the atlas) leak into every dog's raw NNLS breakdown; with it, the bias falls out. Raw fractions stay in the dataset for re-derivation. Methodology.
