Hi Rvtest team, Thanks for creating wonderful tool. I am wondering how to use rvtest for Optimized SKAT (SKAT-O) thanks

Thanks for the comment. I really want to implement it but currently I have a tight schedule...

currently Optimized SKAT (including DEP-SKAT-O, CEP-SKAT-O and RS-SKAT-O) are very important rare variant analyses.... it will be great to have them....checking to see if you get a chance to implemented.... thanks in advance

The current source code supports SKAT-O (--kernel skato). I will draft a release very soon. This implementation is based on SKAT R package and Shawn Lee's SKAT-O paper (in Biostatistics). I am unfamiliar with DEP-SKAT-O, CEP-SKAT-O or RS-SKAT-O, can you please provide some references? Thanks.

Hi,

Thank you for this great software! Is it safe to assume that you implemented the defaults the same as R? R and rvtest with same data and what should be the same options differ by .5 in p-value, which seems large for "numerical instability".

Thanks in advance!
