A probabilistic approach to large-scale association scans: a semi-Bayesian method to detect disease-predisposing alleles.

abstract：:Output from analysis of a high-throughput 'omics' experiment very often is a ranked list. One commonly encountered example is a ranked list of differentially expressed genes from a gene expression experiment, with a length of many hundreds of genes. There are numerous situations where interest is in the comparison of ...
