Generalized linear model for mapping discrete trait loci implemented with LASSO algorithm.

Generalized estimating equation (GEE) algorithm under a heterogeneous residual variance model is an extension of the iteratively reweighted least squares (IRLS) method for continuous traits to discrete traits. In contrast to mixture model-based expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm, the GEE algori...
