A hidden Markov model for haplotype inference for present-absent data of clustered genes using identified haplotypes and haplotype patterns
The majority of killer cell immunoglobin-like receptor (KIR) genes are detected as either present or absent using locus-specific genotyping technology. Ambiguity arises from the presence of a specific KIR gene since the exact copy number (one or two) of that gene is unknown. Therefore, haplotype inf...
