.. class:: infomark

This tool can take a long time to run, depending on the number of SNPs, the
sample size, and the number of MCMC steps specified.  If you have hundreds
of thousands of SNPs, it may take over a day.  The main tasks that slow down
this tool are searching for interactions and dynamically partitioning the
SNPs into blocks.  Optimization is certainly possible, but hasn't been done
yet.  **If your only interest is to detect SNPs with primary effects (i.e.,
single-SNP associations), please use the GPASS tool instead.**

-----

**Dataset formats**

The input dataset must be in lped_ format.  The output datasets are both tabular_.
(`Dataset missing?`_)

.. _lped: ./static/formatHelp.html#lped
.. _tabular: ./static/formatHelp.html#tabular
.. _Dataset missing?: ./static/formatHelp.html

**What it does**

BEAM (Bayesian Epistasis Association Mapping) uses a Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method to infer SNP block structures and detect both single-marker
and interaction effects from case-control SNP data.
This tool also partitions SNPs into blocks based on linkage disequilibrium (LD).  The method utilized is Bayesian, so the outputs are posterior probabilities of association, along with block partitions.  An advantage of this method is that it provides uncertainty measures for the associations and block partitions, and it scales well from small to large sample sizes. It is powerful in detecting gene-gene interactions, although slow for large datasets.

**Example**

- input map file::

    1  rs0  0  738547
    1  rs1  0  5597094
    1  rs2  0  9424115
    etc.

- input ped file::

    1 1 0 0 1  1  G G  A A  A A  A A  A A  A G  A A  G G  G G  A A  G G  G G  G G  A A  A A  A G  A A  G G  A G  A G  A A  G G  A A  G G  A A  G G  A G  A A  G G  A A  G G  A A  A G  A G  G G  A G  G G  G G  A A  A G  A A  G G  G G  G G  G G  A G  A A  A A  A A  A A
