A Nonparametric Test of Gene Region Heterogeneity Associated With Phenotype
与表型相关的基因区域异质性非参数检验
High-dimensional statistical problems arise in the investigation of the relationship between reduced sensitivity to antiretroviral drugs among human immunodeficiency virus-infected patients and viral genotypic patterns obtained from blood samples. This article develops a nonparametric approach for analyzing gene region heterogeneity associated with drug-resistance phenotype. The method is based on the distribution of distances between viral genetic sequences. The distance…
