  • SUMMARIZING AN AGGREGATE CONTRIBUTION TO A CHARACTERISTIC FOR AN INDIVIDUAL
    Publication number: 20170277828
    Abstract: Summarizing an aggregate contribution to a phenotypic characteristic for an individual includes: receiving information pertaining to the phenotypic characteristic of an individual; identifying, using one or more computer processors, a set of one or more markers associated with the phenotypic characteristic; obtaining a set of one or more marker measurements of the individual that corresponds to the set of one or more markers; obtaining a set of one or more statistical factors that measure associations between the set of one or more markers and the phenotypic characteristic; determining an aggregate contribution to the phenotypic characteristic of the individual based at least in part on the retrieved set of one or more statistical factors; and outputting a display characteristic to be displayed that is associated with the aggregate contribution to the phenotypic characteristic for the individual.

  • Summarizing an aggregate contribution to a characteristic for an individual
    Patent number: 8510057
    Abstract: Summarizing an aggregate contribution to a characteristic for an individual is disclosed, including determining the characteristic to be evaluated, identifying one or more markers associated with the characteristic, retrieving the measurement of the individual for each of the one or more markers from a database of individuals' markers, retrieving a statistical factor that measures the association between the marker associated with the characteristic and the characteristic for each of the one or more markers from the marker database, and determining the aggregate contribution based at least in part on the retrieved statistical factors.
