Bayesian latent variable collapsing model for detecting rare variant interaction effect in twin study.

Abstract excerpt

By analyzing more next-generation sequencing data, researchers have affirmed that rare genetic variants are widespread among populations and likely play an important role in complex phenotypes. Recently, a handful of statistical models have been developed to analyze rare variant (RV) association in different study designs. However, due to the scarce occurrence of minor alleles in data, appropriate statistical...
