The phrase "association of statistics" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used when referring to a group or organization that focuses on the field of statistics or statistical practices.
Example: "The association of statistics held its annual conference to discuss the latest advancements in data analysis."
Alternatives: "statistical association" or "statistics organization".
An analysis of the distribution of association test statistics after removal of the SNPs located in two of the established PD associated regions (4q22/ SNCA and 17q21/ MAPT) showed an over-dispersion factor λ = 1.039.
The value of genomic control inflation factor (λGC) was 1.008, which indicated that inflation of association test statistics because of population stratification was negligible.
In the study of local pattern association, several statistics of spatial association allow to detect places with unusual concentrations of high or low values to be analysed ('hot' or 'cold' spots).
Our approach is capable of obtaining the empirical null distribution of association statistics (e.g. F-statistics) and applying these to the observed association statistics between genomic features and PCs to obtain valid statistical significance measures.
After removing these well-validated associated loci, we observed little statistical inflation in the remaining distribution of association statistics (inflation factor λgc = 1.047; Supplementary Material, Fig. S1B).
The standard error of association statistics for IMT may be incorrectly estimated because of non-normality of the IMT distributions.
This special issue provides a platform to the researchers with expertise in data mining to discuss recent advancements in analytic approach of post-GWAS association analysis in field of statistics and bioinformatics.
When compared with genotype imputation methods, DIST (i) requires only a fraction of their computational resources, (ii) has comparable imputation accuracy for independent subjects and (iii) is readily applicable to the imputation of association statistics coming from large pedigree data.
Exact evaluation of Bayes' factors can be computationally demanding, but simple approximations can easily be calculated on the basis of association summary statistics and thus can be applied in the context of meta-analysis [ 29].
Also, association P-values are rarely presented in the context of other quality control data, such as Hardy Weinberg statistics, genotyping efficiency, minor allele frequency, quality scores and other relevant data that can aid the interpretation of association test statistics.
