In this study, we present a new system for pedigree query, visualization, and genetic calculations. A novel query interface is proposed where users can form complicated queries via an easy-to-use graphical user interface with no need for any knowledge of high level query language such as SQL or XPath. A graph encoding method called NodeCodes enables our system to efficiently evaluate relationship-based queries without traversing the graph or using recursive query calls. The visualization of the pedigree data as a dynamic drawing enables the analysis of query results in a more understandable form. The system also provides genetic calculations including inbreeding, kinship, and identity coefficients. Proposed system performs these calculations by using path-based formulas coupling with NodeCodes to achieve efficiency and scalability. 2012-08-27 English text Case Western Reserve University School of Graduate Studies / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=case1339099818 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=case1339099818 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
