Take a pedigree and turn it into an additive genetics relatedness matrix
Description
Take a pedigree and turn it into an additive genetics relatedness matrix
Usage
ped2add(
ped,
max.gen = Inf,
sparse = FALSE,
verbose = FALSE,
gc = FALSE,
flatten.diag = FALSE
)
Arguments
ped |
a pedigree dataset. Needs ID, momID, and dadID columns |
max.gen |
the maximum number of generations to compute (e.g., only up to 4th degree relatives). The default of Inf uses as many generations as there are in the data. |
sparse |
logical. If TRUE, use and return sparse matrices from Matrix package |
verbose |
logical. If TRUE, print progress through stages of algorithm |
gc |
logical. If TRUE, do frequent garbage collection via |
flatten.diag |
logical. If TRUE, overwrite the diagonal of the final relatedness matrix with ones |
