Accurate and fast multiple-testing correction in eQTL studies.
In studies of expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs), it is of increasing interest to identify eGenes, the genes whose expression levels are associated with variation at a particular genetic variant. Detecting eGenes is important for follow-up analyses and prioritization because genes are the main entities in biological processes. To detect eGenes, one typically focuses on the genetic varia...
متن کاملFast and Accurate Misspelling Correction in Large Corpora
There are several NLP systems whose accuracy depends crucially on finding misspellings fast. However, the classical approach is based on a quadratic time algorithm with 80% coverage. We present a novel algorithm for misspelling detection, which runs in constant time and improves the coverage to more than 96%. We use this algorithm together with a cross document coreference system in order to fi...
متن کاملRapid and Accurate Multiple Testing Correction and Power Estimation for Millions of Correlated Markers
With the development of high-throughput sequencing and genotyping technologies, the number of markers collected in genetic association studies is growing rapidly, increasing the importance of methods for correcting for multiple hypothesis testing. The permutation test is widely considered the gold standard for accurate multiple testing correction, but it is often computationally impractical for...
متن کاملMatrix eQTL: ultra fast eQTL analysis via large matrix operations
MOTIVATION Expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) analysis links variations in gene expression levels to genotypes. For modern datasets, eQTL analysis is a computationally intensive task as it involves testing for association of billions of transcript-SNP (single-nucleotide polymorphism) pair. The heavy computational burden makes eQTL analysis less popular and sometimes forces analysts to re...
متن کاملFastMap: Fast eQTL mapping in homozygous populations
MOTIVATION Gene expression Quantitative Trait Locus (eQTL) mapping measures the association between transcript expression and genotype in order to find genomic locations likely to regulate transcript expression. The availability of both gene expression and high-density genotype data has improved our ability to perform eQTL mapping in inbred mouse and other homozygous populations. However, exist...
