Evian
Evidential Analysis of Genetic Association Data.
The evidential approach employs the Law of Likelihood, and uses the LR (likelihood ratio)
rather than p-values to plan/design, analyze, interpret and replicate genetic association studies.
Here is a R package that implements the evidential approach to analyze genetic association SNP data.
