“…They differ in their biometric estimation concepts and procedures (Buitrago et al, 2011;Silva, 2012). Among these, we can mention methods that are already consolidated in the literature as those based on analysis of variance (Plaisted and Peterson, 1959;Wricke, 1965;Annicchiarico, 1992), linear regression (Finlay and Wilkinson, 1963;Eberhart and Russell, 1966;Tai, 1971;Cruz et al, 1989), methods non-parametric (Lin and Binns, 1988;Carneiro, 1998;Rocha et al, 2005), Multiple methods centroids (Nascimento et al, 2009;Nascimento et al, 2015), mixed linear models REML/Blup (Resende, 2004), Bayesian methods (Nascimento et al, 2011, Couto et al, 2015, quantile regression (Barroso et al, 2015), Artificial Neural Networks (Barroso et al, 2013), AMMI model (Gauch, 1992) and GGE biplot (Yan et al, 2011).…”
