  • Methods and systems for determining and displaying pedigrees
    Patent number: 11514627
    Abstract: The disclosed embodiments concern methods, apparatus, systems and computer program products for determining and displaying pedigrees based on IBD data. Some implementations use a probabilistic relationship model to obtain various likelihoods of various potential relationships based on pairwise IBD data and pairwise age data. Some implementations build large pedigrees by combining smaller pedigrees. Some implementations display pedigree graphs with various features that are informative and easy to understand.

  • MACHINE LEARNING PLATFORM FOR GENERATING RISK MODELS
    Publication number: 20210375392
    Abstract: The disclosed embodiments concern methods, apparatus, systems, and computer program products for developing polygenic risk score (PRS) models. In some implementations, a fully automated process is provided that allows for a PRS model to be defined by an initial set of parameters. In some implementations the PRS models are trained to provide a PRS for particular populations.
