Phased or Unphased Linkage Disequilibrium
person("Steven", "Mack", email = "steven.mack@ucsf.edu", role = c("aut", "cre"))
Computes the D', Wn, and conditional asymmetric linkage disequilibrium (ALD) measures for pairs of genetic loci. Performs these linkage disequilibrium (LD) calculations on phased genotype data recorded using Genotype List (GL) String or columnar formats. Alternatively, generates expectation-maximization (EM) estimated haplotypes from phased data, or performs LD calculations on EM estimated haplotypes. Performs sign tests comparing LD values for phased and unphased datasets, and generates heat-maps for each LD measure. Described by Osoegawa et al. (2019a) <doi:10.1016/j.humimm.2019.01.010>, and Osoegawa et. al. (2019b) <doi:10.1016/j.humimm.2019.05.018>.

Provides an interface to compute poverty and inequality indicators for more than 160 countries and regions from the World Bank's database of household surveys. It has the same functionality as the 'Povcalnet' website (<http://iresearch.worldbank.org/PovcalNet/>). 'Povcalnet' is a computational tool that allows users to estimate poverty rates for regions, sets of countries or individual countries, over time and at any poverty line. 'Povcalnet' is managed jointly by the data and research group in the World Bank's development economics division. It draws heavily upon a strong collaboration with the poverty and equity global practice, which is responsible for the gathering and harmonization of the underlying survey data.
