Bayesian sparsity-path-analysis of genetic association signal using generalized t priors.

We explore the use of generalized t priors on regression coefficients to help understand the nature of association signal within "hit regions" of genome-wide association studies. The particular generalized t distribution we adopt is a Student distribution on the absolute value of its argum...
