A unified model based multifactor dimensionality reduction framework for detecting gene-gene interactions

Conclusions: UM-MDR provides a very good supplement of existing MDR method due to its efficiency in achieving significance for every multi-locus model, its power and its flexibility of handling different types of traits. Availability and implementation: A R package "umMDR" and other source codes are freely available at http://statgen.snu.ac.kr/software/umMDR/.
