Bayesian Meta Analysis for Studying Cross-Phenotype Genetic Associations
Overview
A Bayesian meta-analysis method for studying cross-phenotype genetic associations. It uses summary-level data across multiple phenotypes to simultaneously measure the evidence of aggregate-level pleiotropic association and estimate an optimal subset of traits associated with the risk locus. CPBayes is based on a spike and slab prior. The methodology is available from: A Majumdar, T Haldar, S Bhattacharya, JS Witte (2018) doi:10.1371/journal.pgen.1007139.
Fifth version of CPBayes R-package
New features
None.
Bug fixes and minor improvements
The default choices of the burn in period and the MCMC sample size are modified. Computational runtime is reduced significantly.
