Consanguinity and Relative-Pair Methods for Linkage Analysis

A method to detect single-nucleotide polymorphisms accounting for a linkage signal using covariate-based affected relative pair linkage analysis

We evaluate an approach to detect single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that account for a linkage signal with covariate-based affected relative pair linkage analysis in a conditional-logistic model framework using all 200 replicates of the Genetic Analysis Workshop 17 family data set. We begin by combining the multiple known covariate values into a single variable, a propensity score. We also...

AFFECTED RELATIVE PAIR LINKAGE STATISTICS THAT MODEL RELATIONSHIP UNCERTAINTY by

Combined linkage and association sib-pair analysis for quantitative traits.

An extension to current maximum-likelihood variance-components procedures for mapping quantitative-trait loci in sib pairs that allows a simultaneous test of allelic association is proposed. The method involves modeling of the allelic means for a test of association, with simultaneous modeling of the sib-pair covariance structure for a test of linkage. By partitioning of the mean effect of a lo...

islanding detection methods for microgrids

امروزه استفاده از منابع انرژی پراکنده کاربرد وسیعی یافته است . اگر چه این منابع بسیاری از مشکلات شبکه را حل می کنند اما زیاد شدن آنها مسائل فراوانی برای سیستم قدرت به همراه دارد . استفاده از میکروشبکه راه حلی است که علاوه بر استفاده از مزایای منابع انرژی پراکنده برخی از مشکلات ایجاد شده توسط آنها را نیز منتفی می کند . همچنین میکروشبکه ها کیفیت برق و قابلیت اطمینان تامین انرژی مشترکان را افزایش ...

non-parametric methods in genetic linkage analysis

one of the most important goals for researchers in the clinic is to try to find newer and more effective ways to diagnose and cure the diseases. these clinical advances can create new points of view in other sciences and their combination with basic sciences such as statistics can improve these researches. in statistical genetics, linkage analysis is a way of finding the exact locus of a diseas...
