Abstract:Recent advances in sequencing technologies enable genome‐wide analyses for thousands of individuals. The sequential kernel association test (SKAT) is a widely used method to test for associations between a phenotype and a set of rare variants. As the sample size of human genetics studies increases, the computational time required to calculate a kernel is becoming more and more problematic. In this study, a new method to obtain kernel statistics without calculating a kernel matrix is proposed. A simple method f… Show more
