A clustering approach to identify rare variants associated with hypertension
With the development of the next-generation sequencing technology, the influence of rare variants on complex disease has gathered increasing attention. In this paper, we propose a clustering-based approach, the clustering sum test, to test the effects of rare variants association by using the simulated data provided by the Genetic Analysis Workshop 19 with an unbalanced case-control ratio. The ...
متن کاملPrediction of slope stability using adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system based on clustering methods
Slope stability analysis is an enduring research topic in the engineering and academic sectors. Accurate prediction of the factor of safety (FOS) of slopes, their stability, and their performance is not an easy task. In this work, the adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) was utilized to build an estimation model for the prediction of FOS. Three ANFIS models were implemented including g...
متن کاملA powerful and adaptive association test for rare variants.
This article focuses on conducting global testing for association between a binary trait and a set of rare variants (RVs), although its application can be much broader to other types of traits, common variants (CVs), and gene set or pathway analysis. We show that many of the existing tests have deteriorating performance in the presence of many nonassociated RVs: their power can dramatically dro...
متن کاملSurface Reconstruction Using Adaptive Clustering Methods
We present an automatic method for the generation of surface triangulations from sets of scattered points. Given a set of scattered points in three-dimensional space, without connectivity information, our method reconstructs a triangulated surface model in a two-step procedure. First, we apply an adaptive clustering technique to the given set of points, identifying point subsets in regions that...
متن کاملStatistical Clustering Methods Applied to Adaptive Matched Field Processing
Matched field processing (MFP) has been extensively explored for use in detecting and localizing underwater sources. By matching the received data to replica vectors, which account for multipath effects, three-dimensional source localization is possible. A significant problem for MFP is that the beamformer output often displays high ambiguities in range and depth, with a single source leading t...
