The impact of genotyping error on haplotype reconstruction and frequency estimation

The choice of genotyping families vs unrelated individuals is a critical factor in any large-scale linkage disequilibrium (LD) study. The use of unrelated individuals for such studies is promising, ...

Error Estimation for Reduced-Order Models of Dynamical Systems

The use of reduced-order models to describe a dynamical system is pervasive in science and engineering. Often these models are used without an estimate of their error ...
