- phe
phenotype, n by t matrix, n is sample size, t is number of phenotypes
- geno
genotype, m by n matrix, m is marker size, n is sample size. This is Pure Genotype Data Matrix(GD). THERE IS NO COLUMN FOR TAXA.
- map
SNP map information, m by 3 matrix, m is marker size, the three columns are SNP_ID, Chr, and Pos
- CV
covariates, n by c matrix, n is sample size, c is number of covariates
- geno_ind_idx
the index of effective genotyped individuals
- P
start p values for all SNPs
- method.sub
method used in substitution process, five options: 'penalty', 'reward', 'mean', 'median', or 'onsite'
- method.sub.final
method used in substitution process, five options: 'penalty', 'reward', 'mean', 'median', or 'onsite'
- method.bin
method for selecting the most appropriate bins, three options: 'static', 'EMMA' or 'FaST-LMM'
- bin.size
bin sizes for all iterations, a vector, the bin size is always from large to small
- bin.selection
number of selected bins in each iteration, a vector
- memo
a marker on output file name
- Prior
prior information, four columns, which are SNP_ID, Chr, Pos, P-value
- ncpus
number of threads used for parallele computation
- maxLoop
maximum number of iterations
- threshold.output
only the GWAS results with p-values lower than threshold.output will be output
- converge
a number, 0 to 1, if selected pseudo QTNs in the last and the second last iterations have a certain probality (the probability is converge) of overlap, the loop will stop
- iteration.output
whether to output results of all iterations
- p.threshold
if all p values generated in the first iteration are bigger than p.threshold, FarmCPU stops
- QTN.threshold
in second and later iterations, only SNPs with lower p-values than QTN.threshold have chances to be selected as pseudo QTNs
- bound
maximum number of SNPs selected as pseudo QTNs in each iteration
- verbose
whether to print detail.
