Survival Methods for Correlated Time-to-Event Data
The use of product-limit (Kaplan-Meier) estimation and Cox proportional hazards modeling is common when analyzing timeto-event data, especially in the presence of censoring. Presenting results from both methods provides the magnitude of loss within the levels of a given variable, and a relative measure of failure risk between the levels. However, since both above methods assume independence of ...
متن کاملQTL Analysis using Bayesian Interval Mapping
R/qtlbim (www.qtlbim.org) provides a powerful suite of tools for model selection of the genetic architecture for traits influenced by multiple quantitative trait loci (QTL). The Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) sampling approach draws samples from the more probable genetic architectures. Subsequent visualization and summary provides posterior estimates of the number and location of QTL, their ma...
متن کاملStatistical Methods for Mapping Multiple QTL
Since Lander and Botstein proposed the interval mapping method for QTL mapping data analysis in 1989, tremendous progress has been made in the last many years to advance new and powerful statistical methods for QTL analysis. Recent research progress has been focused on statistical methods and issues for mapping multiple QTL together. In this article, we review this progress. We focus the discus...
متن کاملNumerical Methods for Mapping of Multiple QTL
This thesis concerns numerical methods for mapping of multiple quantitative trait loci, QTL. Interactions between multiple genetic loci influencing important traits, such as growth rate in farm animals and predisposition to cancer in humans, make it necessary to search for several QTL simultaneously. Simultaneous search for n QTL involves solving an n-dimensional global optimization problem, wh...
متن کاملA logistic regression mixture model for interval mapping of genetic trait loci affecting binary phenotypes.
Often in genetic research, presence or absence of a disease is affected by not only the trait locus genotypes but also some covariates. The finite logistic regression mixture models and the methods under the models are developed for detection of a binary trait locus (BTL) through an interval-mapping procedure. The maximum-likelihood estimates (MLEs) of the logistic regression parameters are asy...
