Annotation
This volume sets out a new statistical approach to test allelic association and genotype-specific effects in the genetic study of a disease. Primarily based on population-based association studies, the book also evaluates them compared to other methods.
Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) is the latest high throughput technology to revolutionize genomic research. NGS generates massive genomic datasets that play a key role in the big data phenomenon that surrounds us today. To extract signals from high-dimensional NGS data and make…
