Estimates the expected Z Score for a single SNP

est_zscore(N0, N1, Ufactor, powerfactor, freq, GenoProbXW)

Arguments

N0

The number of Y=0

N1

The number of Y=1

Ufactor

The constant factor used to compute the expectation of U

powerfactor

The constant factor used to compute the expectation of the genotype of X to some power

freq

Frequencies of SNP appearances (computed using snphap)

GenoProbXW

An object giving the probability of seeing each X,W genotype vector

Value

The expected Z Score for SNP X, assuming the causal SNPs are W

Details

Assumes the input CVs, and the relationship, gamma, between them and the trait of interest

Assumes we have already generated GenoProbXW for all X
