A performance assessment of relatedness inference methods using genome-wide data from thousands of relatives

2017-02-04

Abstract excerpt

Inferring relatedness from genomic data is an essential component of genetic association studies, population genetics, forensics, and genealogy. While numerous methods exist for inferring relatedness, thorough evaluation of these approaches in real data has been lacking. Here, we report an assessment of 12 state-of-the-art pairwise relatedness inference methods using a dataset with 2,485 individuals contained in s...
