(That's where Offers sharing statistic that I mentioned above came in).
For SGS methods, the multiple testing corresponds to the number of SGS segments across the genome, and this depends on the pedigree structure (number of meioses between the studied cases) and the sharing statistic considered (pSGS or SGS).
We used the software, Merlin (http://www.sph.umich.edu/csg/abecasis/Merlin/index.html), to calculate the Kong and Cox maximum LOD score on the basis of the exponential model and 'pairs' non-parametric allele-sharing statistic at the BRIP1 locus for the families of the 94 patients included in the sequence analysis (Whittemore and Halpern, 1994; Kong and Cox, 1997; Abecasis et al, 2002).
Many consult Win Shares, a statistic developed by Bill James that takes a mathematics degree to generate but barely two hands' worth of fingers to use.
I have estimated a player's chances of winning an N.B.A. title based on his win shares, a statistic calculated by Basketball-Reference.com that measures overall value to a team.
This season has been Parker's best, as he stands 10th in the league in win shares — a statistic that estimates the number of wins a player contributes through his offense and defense — and fourth in the league in win shares per 48 minutes.
Facebook shared the statistic as part of its pitch for a new advertising product, the Reach Generator.
We developed and implemented a discrete-trait allele-sharing test statistic, Sad, analogous to the Spairs test statistic of Whittemore and Halpern, that evaluates an excess sharing of alleles at autosomal loci in pairs of affected siblings, as well as a lack of sharing in phenotypically discordant relative pairs, where available.
When I shared this statistic with young friends here, their eyes widened.
And so, in the next class, she shared this statistic with Abdullah.
