RFMix-reader: Accelerated reading and processing for local ancestry studies
2024-07-17
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Motivation</h4> Local ancestry inference is a powerful technique in genetics, revealing population history and the genetic basis of diseases. It is particularly valuable for improving eQTL discovery and fine-mapping in admixed populations.
