MultAssoc – Test of Association of a Disease with a Group of SNPs

MultAssoc

:: DESCRIPTION

MultAssoc is a MATLAB software package for test of association of a disease with a group of SNPs after accounting for their interaction with another group of SNPs or environmental exposures. In addition to implementing two standard logistic regression based tests, the package implements a novel method, called TukAssoc, that uses the Tukey’s 1 d.f. model for interaction between two groups of covariates.

MDCAP – MiRNA-Disease Causal Association Predictor

MDCAP

:: DESCRIPTION

The MDCAP is a computinal model for predicting novel causal miRNA-disease associations. MDCAP would calculate a score for all potential causal miRNA-disease associations. With the score, users could identify most potential causal miRNAs for a given disease or new causal associated disease of a miRNA.
