FiMAP is an R package for performing efficient identity-by-descent (IBD) mapping test using IBD segments to identify genomic regions associated with complex traits in large biobank-scale cohorts.
FiMAP imports R packages CompQuadForm, foreach, parallel, Matrix, GMMAT. In addition, FiMAP requires doMC to run parallel computing. These dependencies should be installed before installing FiMAP.
For optimal computational performance, it is recommended to use an R version configured with the Intel Math Kernel Library (or other fast BLAS/LAPACK libraries). See the instructions on building R with Intel MKL.
