Computer-aided human leukocyte antigen association studies: a case study for psoriasis and severe alopecia areata.

Abstract excerpt

We present an integer programming model for human leukocyte antigen (HLA) association studies based on the parsimony criterion. The model is simple, compact, easy to implement, and able to handle datasets containing up to 200 phenotypes. Computational experiments carried out on patients affected by psoriasis and severe alopecia areata show that the model is consistent with the experimental haplotype frequencies,...
