A fast and simple method for detecting identity by descent segments in large-scale data

2019-12-12

Abstract excerpt

Segments of identity by descent (IBD) are used in many genetic analyses. We present a method for detecting identical-by-descent haplotype segments that is optimized for large-scale genotype data. Our method, called hap-IBD, combines a compressed representation of genotype data, the positional Burrows-Wheeler transform, and multi-threaded execution to produce very fast analysis times. An attractive feature of hap-I...
