snpStats

Classes for storing very large GWAS data sets and annotation, and functions for GWAS data cleaning and analysis.

"Methylation-Aware Genotype Association in R" (MAGAR) computes methQTL from DNA methylation and genotyping data from matched samples. MAGAR uses a linear modeling stragety to call CpGs/SNPs that are methQTLs. MAGAR accounts for the local correlation structure of CpGs.

Estimate gene and eQTL networks from high-throughput expression and genotyping assays.

Implements classes and methods for large-scale SNP association studies

A classification algorithm, based on a multi-chip, multi-SNP approach for Affymetrix SNP arrays. Using a large training sample where the genotype labels are known, this aglorithm will obtain more accurate classification results on new data. RLMM is based on a robust, linear model and uses the Mahalanobis distance for classification. The chip-to-chip non-biological variation is removed through normalization. This model-based algorithm captures the similarities across genotype groups and probes, as well as thousands other SNPs for accurate classification. NOTE: 100K-Xba only at for now.

Testing SNPs and SNP interactions with a genotypic TDT. This package furthermore contains functions for computing pairwise values of LD measures and for identifying LD blocks, as well as functions for setting up matched case pseudo-control genotype data for case-parent trios in order to run trio logic regression, for imputing missing genotypes in trios, for simulating case-parent trios with disease risk dependent on SNP interaction, and for power and sample size calculation in trio data.
