Large sample size and nonlinear sparse models outline epistatic effects in inflammatory bowel disease KU Leuven
BACKGROUND: Despite clear evidence of nonlinear interactions in the molecular architecture of polygenic diseases, linear models have so far appeared optimal in genotype-to-phenotype modeling. A key bottleneck for such modeling is that genetic data intrinsically suffers from underdetermination ([Formula: see text]). Millions of variants are present in each individual while the collection of large, homogeneous cohorts is hindered by phenotype ...
