Abstract excerpt
MOTIVATION: Transcriptome-wide association study (TWAS) aims to identify trait-associated genes regulated by significant variants to explore the underlying biological mechanisms at a tissue-specific level. Despite the advancement of current TWAS methods to cover diverse traits, traditional approaches still face two main challenges: (i) the lack of methods that can guarantee finite-sample false discovery rate...
