Sequential imputation and multipoint linkage analysis.
A novel Monte Carlo method for linkage analyses involving large pedigrees and many polymorphic loci is introduced. Issues related to the efficiency of the method are discussed.
متن کاملFast multipoint linkage analysis and the program Allegro
¥ The first two authors have contributed equally to this work 2 Summary Several improvements to computational algorithms for multipoint linkage analysis are developed. The new algorithms achieve considerable speed-up over previous ones, and allow larger families to be analyzed. The algorithms have been implemented in a computer program, Allegro. Allegro has the same basic functionality as the w...
متن کاملMultipoint quantitative-trait linkage analysis in general pedigrees.
Multipoint linkage analysis of quantitative-trait loci (QTLs) has previously been restricted to sibships and small pedigrees. In this article, we show how variance-component linkage methods can be used in pedigrees of arbitrary size and complexity, and we develop a general framework for multipoint identity-by-descent (IBD) probability calculations. We extend the sib-pair multipoint mapping appr...
متن کاملApplying Association Rule Discovery Algorithm to Multipoint Linkage Analysis.
Knowledge discovery in large databases (KDD) is being performed in several application domains, for example, the analysis of sales data, and is expected to be applied to other domains. We propose a KDD approach to multipoint linkage analysis, which is a way of ordering loci on a chromosome. Strict multipoint linkage analysis based on maximum likelihood estimation is a computationally tough prob...
متن کاملMultipoint linkage disequilibrium mapping using multilocus allele frequency data.
This paper describes a likelihood based fine scale linkage disequilibrium mapping method for estimating the position of a disease predisposing gene relative to a battery of typed marker loci. The method uses multilocus allele frequency data from a sample of unrelated diseased individuals and from a sample of unrelated control individuals, that is, a case and control type design. This type of da...
