Abstract
Gaussian processes (GPs) are a powerful and useful approach for modelling nonlinear phenomena in various scientific fields, including genomics and genetics. This review focuses on the application of GPs in genetic association mapping. The aim is to identify genetic variants that alter gene regulation along continuous cellular states at the molecular level, as well as disease susceptibility over time and space at the population level. The challenges and opportunities in this field are also addressed.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Human Genetics is an international journal publishing articles on human genetics, including medical genetics and human genome analysis. It covers all aspects of human genetics, including molecular genetics, clinical genetics, behavioral genetics, immunogenetics, pharmacogenomics, population genetics, functional genomics, epigenetics, genetic counseling and gene therapy.
Articles on the following areas are especially welcome: genetic factors of monogenic and complex disorders, genome-wide association studies, genetic epidemiology, cancer genetics, personal genomics, genotype-phenotype relationships and genome diversity.
