FlashPCA2: principal component analysis of Biobank-scale genotype datasets
Motivation Principal component analysis (PCA) is a crucial step in quality control of genomic data and a common approach for understanding population genetic structure. With the advent of large genotyping studies involving hundreds of thousands of individuals, standard approaches are no longer feasible. However, when the full decomposition is not required, substantial computational savings can ...
متن کاملDiffusion Index Model Specification and Estimation Using Mixed Frequency Datasets
In this chapter, we discuss the use of mixed frequency models and diffusion index approximation methods in the context of prediction. In particular, select recent specification and estimation methods are outlined, and an empirical illustration is provided wherein U.S. unemployment forecasts are constructed using both classical principal components based diffusion indexes as well as using a comb...
متن کاملMELD: Mixed effects for large datasets
Mixed effects models provide significant advantages in sensitivity and flexibility over typical statistical approaches to neural data analysis, but mass univariate application of mixed effects models to large neural datasets is computationally intensive. Threshold free cluster enhancement also provides a significant increase in sensitivity, but requires computationally-intensive permutation-bas...
متن کاملModel requirements for Biobank Software Systems
UNLABELLED Biobanks are essential tools in diagnostics and therapeutics research and development related to personalized medicine. Several international recommendations, standards and guidelines exist that discuss the legal, ethical, technological, and management requirements of biobanks. Today's biobanks are much more than just collections of biospecimens. They also store a huge amount of data...
متن کاملUK Biobank: a model for public engagement?
Whilst in other applications of genetic technology the public debate has begun only when a piece of research has been completed, public consultations on biobanking began in 2000, before the funding for UK Biobank was even agreed, and have continued throughout its development. UK Biobank has obvious attractions for the British public. It is being set up specifically as a resource for research in...
