Congratulations @_anjalidas & @david_a_knowles! “Gruyere” new method for rare variant association testing. #Alzheimers #ADSP #AI/#ML.
Our first foray into (noncoding) rare variant association testing! gruyere learns functional annotation importance & finds associations missed by existing methods. @_anjalidas did a fantastic job with model assessment & scaling! Joint w @towfiqueRaj
