CAVIAR

CAVIAR (CAusal Variants Identification in Associated Regions), a statistical framework that quantifies the probability of each variant to be causal while allowing with arbitrary number of causal variants.

CAVIAR was created by Farhad Hormozdiari, Emrah Kostem, Eun Yong Kang, Bogdan Pasaniuc and Eleazar Eskin

eCAVIAR

eCAVIAR (eQTL and GWAS CAusal Variants Identification in Associated Regions), a statistical framework that quantifies the probability of the variant to be causal both in GWAS and eQTL studies, while allowing with arbitrary number of causal variants.
