Naïve Bayesian Classifier and Genetic Risk Score for Genetic Risk Prediction of a Categorical Trait: Not so Different After All!

Naïve Bayesian Classifier and Genetic Risk Score for Genetic Risk Prediction of a Categorical Trait: Not so Different After All!

One of the most popular modeling approaches to genetic risk prediction is to use a summary of risk alleles in the form of an unweighted or a weighted genetic risk score, with weights that relate to the odds for the phenotype in carriers of the individual alleles. Recent contributions have proposed t...
