haplo.stats (version 1.9.7)

setupGeno: Create a group of locus objects from a genotype matrix, assign to 'model.matrix' class.

Description

The function makes each pair of columns a locus object, which recodes alleles to numeric and saves the original alleles as an attribute of the model.matrix.

Usage

setupGeno(geno, miss.val=c(0,NA), locus.label=NULL)

Value

A 'model.matrix' object with the alleles recoded to numeric values, and the original values are stored in the 'unique.alleles' attribute. The ith item of the unique.alleles list is a vector of unique alleles for the ith locus.

Arguments

geno

Matrix of alleles, such that each locus has a pair of adjacent columns of alleles, and the order of columns corresponds to the order of loci on a chromosome. If there are K loci, then ncol(geno) = 2*K. Rows represent alleles for each subject.

miss.val

A vector of codes denoting missing values for allele1 and allele2. Note that NA will always be treated as a missing value, even if not specified in miss.val. Also note that if multiple missing value codes are specified, the original missing value code for a specific individual can not be retrieved from the loci object.

locus.label

vector of labels for the loci

Details

This function contains the essential parts of the loci function, which is no longer within haplo.stats

Run this code
# Create some loci to work with
a1 <- 1:6
a2 <- 7:12

b1 <- c("A","A","B","C","E","D")
b2 <-c("A","A","C","E","F","G")

c1 <- c("101","10","115","132","21","112")
c2 <- c("100","101","0","100","21","110")

myGeno <- data.frame(a1,a2,b1,b2,c1,c2)
myGeno <- setupGeno(myGeno)
