In this work we present a framework for blood cholesterol levels prediction from genotype data. The predictor is based on an algorithm for cholesterol metabolism simulation available in literature, implemented and optimized by our group in the R language. The main weakness of the former simulation algorithm was the need of experimental data to simulate mutations in genes altering the cholesterol metabolism. This...
