Hierarchical generalized linear models for multiple groups of rare and common variants: jointly estimating group and individual-variant effects.
Complex diseases and traits are likely influenced by many common and rare genetic variants and environmental factors. Detecting disease susceptibility variants is a challenging task, especially when their frequencies are low and/or their effects are small or moderate. We propose here a comprehensive...
