Alternative contingency table measures improve the power and detection of multifactor dimensionality reduction
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Multifactor Dimensionality Reduction (MDR) has been introduced previously as a non-parametric statistical method for detecting gene-gene interactions. MDR performs a dimensional reduction by assigning multi-locus genotypes to either...
