Boosting heritability: estimating the genetic component of phenotypic variation with multiple sample splitting
Abstract Background Heritability is a central measure in genetics quantifying how much of the variability observed in a trait is attributable to genetic differences. Existing methods for estimating heritability are most often based on random-effect models, typically for computational reasons. The al...
