Abstract excerpt
The assumption of Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) among alleles is of fundamental importance in genetic studies. There are numerous testing methods for it using genotype counts data. The exact test is used when the sample size is not large enough for asymptotic approximations. There are several numerical methods to carry out this test, such as complete enumeration, Monte Carlo and Markov chain Monte Carlo...
