snpgrid: Diffusion kernels on SNP genotypes

Description Usage Arguments Value Author(s) References See Also Examples

Description

This function construct a diffusion kernel on a p-dimensional SNP grid graph, where each genotype takes on three possible configurations, namely 0 ('aa'), 1 ('Aa'), and 2('AA'). This graph is obained by the p-Cartesian graph product of a path graph 0-1-2. It contains 3^p vertices corresponding to sequences of genotypes, and two vertices are adjacent if and only if just one SNP locus differs by 1.

Usage

1
snpgrid(X, theta)

Arguments

X

A genotype matrix of n individuals with p SNPs (n \times p).

theta

The rate of diffusion.

Value

Diffusion kernel matrix of size n \times n. This can be viewed as a covariance among individuals given the diffusion rate.
