An application and empirical comparison of statistical analysis methods for associating rare variants to a complex phenotype.

Abstract excerpt

The contribution of collections of rare sequence variations (or 'variants') to phenotypic expression has begun to receive considerable attention within the biomedical research community. However, the best way to capture the effects of rare variants in relevant statistical analysis models is an open question. In this paper we describe the application of a number of statistical methods for testing associations...
