Package: BG2 Type: Package Title: Performs Bayesian GWAS analysis for non-Gaussian data using BG2 Version: 1.13.0 Authors@R: c(person(given = "Jacob", family = "Williams", role = c("aut", "cre"), email = "jwilliams@vt.edu", comment = c(ORCID = "0000-0002-6425-1365")), person(given = "Shuangshuang", family = "Xu", role = "aut"), person(given = "Marco", family = "Ferreira", role = "aut", comment = c(ORCID = "0000-0002-4705-5661"))) Description: This package is built to perform GWAS analysis for non-Gaussian data using BG2. The BG2 method uses penalized quasi-likelihood along with nonlocal priors in a two step manner to identify SNPs in GWAS analysis. The research related to this package was supported in part by National Science Foundation awards DMS 1853549 and DMS 2054173.
