tagSNPfinder – Mutilocus LD Measure and Tag SNP Selection

tagSNPfinder

:: DESCRIPTION

tagSNPfinder is a software of Cross entropy Monte Carlo methods for SNP selection. TagSNPFinder defined a novel multilocus LD measure ER with generalized mutual information. We also designed  a general scheme to select ‘tagging’ SNPs through  combining the association and diversity together. Currently TagSNPFinder have routines to select Tagging SNPs with exhaustive search forward, backward, and stepwise selection.

HapTagger – Tag SNP Selection Using Haplotype

HapTagger

:: DESCRIPTION

HapTagger is a software for finding tag SNPs. HapTagger is compared with existing methods as well as the official tagging tool (called Haploview) of the International HapMap project using a variety of real data sets.
