GenomeWeb: Machine Learning Tool Enables Analysis of Complex, Polygenic Phenotypes With Epistastic Interactions

by Denis Bauer

CHICAGO – Bioinformaticians from Australia's Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO) have released a computing method capable of analyzing complex, polygenic phenotypes that may involve epistatic interactions using massive sets of whole-genome data.

They described their method, called VariantSpark, in an article published last month in GigaScience. [..]
