Unifying genetic association tests via regression: Prospective and retrospective, parametric and non-parametric, and genotype- and allele-based tests
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Genetic association analysis, evaluating the relationship between genetic markers and complex and heritable traits, is the basis of genome-wide association studies. In response, many association tests have been developed, and they are generally classified as prospective vs. retrospective, parametric vs. non-parametric, and genotype- vs. allele-based association tests. While method classification is useful, it is confusing and challenging for practitioners to decide on the ‘optimal’ test to use for their data. Although there are known differences between some of the popular association tests, we provide new results that show the analytical connections between the different tests for both population- and family-based study designs.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
