A fast and robust Bayesian nonparametric method for prediction of complex traits using summary statistics.

Genetic prediction of complex traits has great promise for disease prevention, monitoring, and treatment. The development of accurate risk prediction models is hindered by the wide diversity of genetic architecture across different traits, limited access to individual level data for training and par...
