Genetic association studies are an essential tool for studying the relationship between genotypes and phenotypes and thus for the discovery of disease-causing genetic variants. With genphen we propose a new method for conducting genetic association studies, using a combined approach which is based on both Bayesian inference and statistical learning techniques such as random forest and support vector machines.
