Stochastic search and joint fine-mapping increases accuracy and identifies previously unreported associations in immune-mediated diseases
Statistical fine-mapping to pinpoint likely causal variants in a genomic region is complicated by linkage disequilibrium (LD). Here, Asimit et al. compare stepwise and stochastic approaches to fine-mapping and propose a Bayesian multinomial stochastic search method which they apply to six immune-med...

| Résumé: | Statistical fine-mapping to pinpoint likely causal variants in a genomic region is complicated by linkage disequilibrium (LD). Here, Asimit et al. compare stepwise and stochastic approaches to fine-mapping and propose a Bayesian multinomial stochastic search method which they apply to six immune-mediated diseases. |
