SnpRecode

SnpRecode converts genotype data into Fimpute-compatible formats and computes genotype correlations to assess genotype imputation accuracy.


Key Features:

  • Format conversion: Converts genotype data into formats compatible with Fimpute to prepare datasets for imputation.
  • Genotype correlation calculation: Computes rapid genotype correlation statistics to estimate imputation accuracy.
  • Correlation plotting: Generates plots that visualize genotype correlations and imputation accuracy.
  • Implementation: Implemented in Python.

Scientific Applications:

  • Genotype imputation preprocessing: Preparing genotype datasets for imputation with Fimpute by converting formats.
  • Imputation accuracy assessment: Estimating and visualizing imputation accuracy using genotype correlations and plots.
  • Quality control of imputed datasets: Evaluating the reliability of imputed genotypes prior to downstream analyses.

Methodology:

Converts genotype formats for Fimpute, computes genotype correlations, and generates correlation plots; implemented in Python.
