Gibbs sampler

OPTIONs for priors and degrees of belief, for restarting from the last sampling, and for storing solutions and SD with or without fixed (known) variances

  • gibbs1f90: Faster than GIBBS2F90 without missing traits
  • gibbs2f90: Useful with missing traits
  • gibbs3f90: With heterogeneous residual variances
  • thrgibbs1f90: Threshold + linear model
  • thrgibbs3f90: Threshold + linear model with heterogeneous residual variances
  • gibbsf90test: This is a beta version for a combined Gibbs program of gibbs2f90, gibbs3f90, thrgibbs1f90, and thrgibbs3f90

Post-Gibbs Analysis

  • postgibbsf90: Statistics and graphics for convergence diagnosis and post-Gibbs analysis (use postgibbsold for old Gibbs sampler programs). The graphs are created with gnuplot, which must be pre-installed.

BLUP

  • blupf90: (G)BLUP with SOR, FSPAK or PCG
  • predictf90: Calculates y-hat
  • blup90iod2: (G)BLUP for a large number of equations (available only under some conditions)
  • blup90iod2r: (G)BLUP with GIBBS3F90-type heterogeneous residual variance for a large number of equations (available only under some conditions)
  • blup90iod2hr: (G)BLUP with AIREMLF90-type heterogeneous residual variance for a large number of equations (available only under some conditions)
  • cblup90iod2: (G)BLUP with threshold + linear model for a large number of equations (available only under some conditions)
  • blup90mbe2: (G)BLUP for a large number of equations for multi-breed evaluations (available only under some conditions). The prior external EBV can be from other breeds, lines, foreign origins, …

Accuracy (approximation)

  • accf90: Accuracy (reliability) for a large number of animals (available only under some conditions)
  • accf90GS: Accuracy (reliability) for a large number of animals with genotypes (available only under some conditions); requires options

Genomic Analysis

  • preGSf90: Pre-analysis of genomic programs with options, including options for postGSf90 (GWAS)
  • postGSf90: Post-analysis of genomic programs with options (GWAS)
  • predf90: Prediction of EBV using only SNP
