Improved computations for relationship inference using low-coverage sequencing data.

Abstract excerpt

Pedigree inference, for example determining whether two persons are second cousins or unrelated, can be done by comparing their genotypes at a selection of genetic markers. When the data for one or more of the persons is from low-coverage next generation sequencing (lcNGS), currently available computational methods either ignore genetic linkage or do not take advantage of the probabilistic nature of lcNGS data,...
