Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

1 Abstract Summary Family-based studies have several advantages over case-control studies for finding causal rare variants for a disease; these include increased power, smaller sample size requirements, and improved detection of sequencing errors. However, collecting suitable families and compiling their data is time-consuming and expensive. To evaluate methodology to identify causal rare variants in family-based studies, one can use simulated data. For this purpose we present the R package SimRVSequences . Users supply a sample of pedigrees and single-nucleotide variant data from a sample of unrelated individuals representing the pedigree founders. Users may also model genetic heterogeneity among families. For ease of use, SimRVSequences offers methods to import and format single-nucleotide variant data and pedigrees from existing software. Availability and Implementation SimRVSequences is available as a library for R ≥ 3.5.0 on the comprehensive R archive network.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
