Multipoint linkage analysis via Metropolis jumping kernels.

Biometrics - 1 Dec 1996

Lin S

Abstract excerpt

Multipoint linkage analysis is being performed routinely in medical genetic studies to localize disease genes. This likelihood-based method is very computationally intensive. Exact computations are thus formidable for problems with large number of genetic markers and complex pedigrees. This paper proposes a Monte Carlo method to estimate the required likelihoods. The space of multilocus genotypes is sampled using...
