Multi-Set Testing Strategies Show Good Behavior When Applied to Very Large Sets of Rare Variants
Gene-based tests of association (e.g., variance components and burden tests) are now common practice for analyses attempting to elucidate the contribution of rare genetic variants on common disease. As sequencing datasets continue to grow in size, the number of variants within each set (e.g., gene)...
