Trinculo: Bayesian and frequentist multinomial logistic regression for genome-wide association studies of multi-category phenotypes.

Abstract excerpt

MOTIVATION: For many classes of disease the same genetic risk variants underly many related phenotypes or disease subtypes. Multinomial logistic regression provides an attractive framework to analyze multi-category phenotypes, and explore the genetic relationships between these phenotype categories. We introduce Trinculo, a program that implements a wide range of multinomial analyses in a single fast package that...
