With the recent advent of high-throughput genotyping techniques, genetic data for genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have become increasingly available, which entails the development of efficient and effective statistical approaches.…
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified hundreds of loci at very stringent levels of statistical significance across many different human traits. However, it is now clear that very large samples (n~10^4-10^5) are needed to…
Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS) face unique challenges in the era of big genomics data, particularly when dealing with ultra-high-dimensional datasets where the number of genetic features significantly exceeds the available samples.…
Genomic data arising from a genome-wide association study (GWAS) are often not only of large-scale, but also incomplete. A specific form of their incompleteness is missing values with non-ignorable missingness mechanism. The intrinsic…
Meta-analysis of multiple genome-wide association studies (GWAS) is effective for detecting single or multi marker associations with complex traits. We develop a flexible procedure ("STAMP") based on mixture models to perform region based…
Although genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have proven powerful for comprehending the genetic architecture of complex traits, they are challenged by a high dimension of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) as predictors, the presence…
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have achieved great success in the genetic study of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Collaborative imaging genetics studies across different research institutions show the effectiveness of detecting genetic…
Disease-gene association through Genome-wide association study (GWAS) is an arduous task for researchers. Investigating single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that correlate with specific diseases needs statistical analysis of associations.…
Motivation: Genome-wide association studies (GWASs), which assay more than a million single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in thousands of individuals, have been widely used to identify genetic risk variants for complex diseases. However,…
Traditional GWAS has advanced our understanding of complex diseases but often misses nonlinear genetic interactions. Deep learning offers new opportunities to capture complex genomic patterns, yet existing methods mostly depend on feature…
Despite significant progress in dissecting the genetic architecture of complex diseases by genome-wide association studies (GWAS), the signals identified by association analysis may not have specific pathological relevance to diseases so…
Motivated by the inquiries of weak signals in underpowered genome-wide association studies (GWASs), we consider the problem of retaining true signals that are not strong enough to be individually separable from a large amount of noise. We…
A computational challenge to validate the candidate disease genes identified in a high-throughput genomic study is to elucidate the associations between the set of candidate genes and disease phenotypes. The conventional gene set enrichment…
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) provide a means of examining the common genetic variation underlying a range of traits and disorders. In addition, it is hoped that GWAS may provide a means of differentiating affected from unaffected…
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have led to the discovery of numerous single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with various phenotypes and complex diseases. However, the identified genetic variants do not fully explain the…
It is generally acknowledged that most complex diseases are affected in part by interactions between genes and genes and/or between genes and environmental factors. Taking into account environmental exposures and their interactions with…
Presented here is a simple method for cross-validated genome-wide association studies (cvGWAS). Focusing on phenotype prediction, the method is able to reveal a significant amount of missing heritability by properly selecting a small number…
Genome-wide association studies(GWAS) have proven to be highly useful in revealing the genetic basis of complex diseases. At present, most GWAS are studies of a particular single disease diagnosis against controls. However, in practice, an…
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have been widely used to examine the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and complex traits, where both the sample size n and the number of SNPs p can be very large. Recently,…
Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS) help identify genetic variations in people with diseases such as Parkinson's disease (PD), which are less common in those without the disease. Thus, GWAS data can be used to identify genetic variations…
