Automatic clustering of self-defined groups to minimize false disease associations and maximize within-group genetic similarity

2026-07-21

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p> <bold>Background</bold> : Self-defined ethnic groups show uneven geographic and socioeconomic distributions that can confound clinical associations. Genetic variation between groups can create spurious disease associations when populations are inappropriately combined, while analyzing groups separately reduces statistical power. There is therefore a need for population groupings that...
