ms.pca: The matrix substitution approach

In PCFAM: Computation of Ancestry Scores with Mixed Families and Unrelated Individuals

Description

This function provides the matrix subsitution algorithm. The main idea is to replace the high covariance value entries in the covariance matrix which are produced by family members by a small value (e.g. median covariance).

Usage

ms.pca(X, corXresid, threshold, top)

Arguments

X	The input data matrix
corXresid	The correlation of the genotypes after residualization for any evidence of larger scale ancestry. Used to identify close-degree family members in a manner robust to large-scale ancestry.
threshold	Covariance values of identified family members are set to the threshold.
top	The number of ancestry scores to obtain.

Value

eigenvector	Eigenvectors after using the matrix substitution method
myeigen	The top eigenvalues and eigenvectors
