Abstract:

Statistical analyses have been used in many fields of genetic research. But in the utility of a Bayesian statistics for complex problems, geneticists are finding this framework useful and are increasingly utilizing the power of this approach. In this paper, we discuss the classical and Bayesian approaches, the utility of a Bayesian statistics in genetics, and the advantages of Bayesian approaches.
