Genotype simulation using allele frequencies and LD #9

Closed KangchengHou closed 2 years ago

use HapSim (https://academic.oup.com/bioinformatics/article/21/23/4309/194848) and simulate recombination events so that we can simulate admixed individual with only LD matrices (without large number of individual haplotype data)

simple experiment with this hapsim package is performed, however, that implementation seems to be work with > 50 SNPs. A wrapper of hapgen2 has been added. So the current preferred approach is to first simulate some haplotypes with hapgen2 and then simulate the cross-over process.
