predict_auc_mt_continuous: Expected AUC for prediction of a binary trait using information on a correlated continuous trait

Description

Computes the expected Area Under the Curve (AUC) for predicting a binary trait using information from a correlated continuous trait.

Usage

predict_auc_mt_continuous(h2x, Nx, Kx, Px, h2y, Ny, rg, Me, M)

Value

A numeric value representing the expected AUC.

Arguments

h2x

Heritability of the target trait.

Nx

Number of samples for the target trait.

Kx

Prevalence of the target trait.

Px

Case-control proportion of the target trait.

h2y

Heritability of the correlated trait.

Ny

Number of samples for the correlated trait.

rg

Genetic correlation between the target and correlated trait.

Me

Number of independent chromosome segments.

M

Number of markers.
