Construct Adjacency Matrix for Parent-Child Relationships Using Beta Method This function constructs an adjacency matrix for parent-child relationships using a beta method. It identifies parent-child pairs based on the specified component of relatedness.

Usage

.adjBeta(
  ped,
  component,
  adjBeta_method = 5,
  parList = NULL,
  lastComputed = 0,
  lens = NULL,
  saveable = FALSE,
  resume = FALSE,
  save_path = NULL,
  verbose = FALSE,
  save_rate_parlist = NULL,
  update_rate = NULL,
  checkpoint_files = NULL,
  config,
  compress = config$compress,
  ...
)

Arguments

ped: a pedigree dataset. Needs ID, momID, and dadID columns
component: character. Which component of the pedigree to return. See Details.
adjBeta_method: numeric The method to use for computing the building the adjacency_method matrix when using the "beta" build
parList: a list of parent-child relationships
lastComputed: the last computed index
lens: a vector of the lengths of the parent-child relationships
saveable: logical. If TRUE, save the intermediate results to disk
resume: logical. If TRUE, resume from a checkpoint
save_path: character. The path to save the checkpoint files
verbose: logical. If TRUE, print progress through stages of algorithm
save_rate_parlist: numeric. The rate at which to save the intermediate results by parent list. If NULL, defaults to save_rate*1000
update_rate: numeric. The rate at which to print progress
checkpoint_files: a list of checkpoint files
config: a configuration list that passes parameters to the function
compress: logical. If TRUE, use compression when saving the checkpoint files. Defaults to TRUE.
