Work - Genmod
The key genetic models genmod can annotate are:
Though they operate in different spheres, both definitions of "genmod work" share a core philosophy:
None (so far!)
Specifying the Likelihood Function: This function represents the probability of observing the given data, given the model parameters (the coefficients).
: Specify the dependent variable and independent predictors. Distribution and Link Functions : Define the error distribution (e.g., DIST=POISSON DIST=BINOMIAL ) and the link function (e.g., LINK=LOGIT ) to map the linear predictor to the mean of the response. Assessment of Fit : The procedure automatically generates statistics like Pearson Chi-Square genmod work
/* Use PROC REPORT for custom formatting of the estimates */ proc report data=my_estimates; column Variable Level Estimate StdErr ChiSq ProbChiSq; define Variable / "Predictor"; define Estimate / "Estimate" format=8.4; run;
For researchers and bioinformaticians, "doing Genmod work" typically revolves around three main pillars: The key genetic models genmod can annotate are:
Before a researcher can find a disease gene, they must define how that gene behaves. Is it dominant (only one copy of the mutated gene is needed to cause disease) or recessive (two copies are needed)? Is it located on an autosome or a sex chromosome? Genmod allows researchers to program these specific rules. It creates a framework where the software "knows" the biology of the hypothesis being tested.
Supports ESTIMATE and CONTRAST statements to perform custom hypothesis tests and calculate confidence intervals for model parameters. Assessment of Fit : The procedure automatically generates
: Following the logic of fitting a sequence of models, the work units evolve. As more data flows in, the feature updates the "Work" status, closing irrelevant branches and expanding high-impact ones.
