Second-generation PLINK: rising to the challenge of larger and richer datasets
Christopher C. Chang,Carson C. Chow,Laurent C. A. M. Tellier,Shashaank Vattikuti,Shaun Purcell,James J. Lee +5 more
TL;DR: The second-generation versions of PLINK will offer dramatic improvements in performance and compatibility, and for the first time, users without access to high-end computing resources can perform several essential analyses of the feature-rich and very large genetic datasets coming into use.

Second-generation PLINK: rising to the challenge of larger and richer datasets
Christopher C. Chang,Carson C. Chow,Laurent C. A. M. Tellier,Shashaank Vattikuti,Shaun Purcell,James J. Lee +5 more
TL;DR: PLINK as discussed by the authors is a C/C++ toolset for genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and research in population genetics, which has been widely used in the literature.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantification of the effect of energy imbalance on bodyweight
Kevin D. Hall,Gary Sacks,Dhruva Chandramohan,Carson C. Chow,Y. Claire Wang,Steven L. Gortmaker,Boyd Swinburn +6 more
TL;DR: A mathematical modelling approach to adult human metabolism that simulates energy expenditure adaptations during weight loss and presents a web-based simulator for prediction of weight change dynamics, showing that the bodyweight response to a change of energy intake is slow.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stochastic resonance without tuning
TL;DR: Large nonlinear networks do not suffer from the limitations of SR in single units, and might be able to use a single noise level, such as that provided by the intrinsic noise of the individual components, to enhance the system's sensitivity to weak inputs.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Progressive Increase of Food Waste in America and Its Environmental Impact
TL;DR: It is found that US per capita food waste has progressively increased by ∼50% since 1974 reaching more than 1400 kcal per person per day or 150 trillion kcal per year.
