@magnusdv magnusdv released this 19 Aug 06:49

This version includes a major update of the shiny app frontend to ibdsim2. Previously developed in a separate repository (accessible at https://github.com/magnusdv/ibdsim2-legacy/), the app is now included as part of the ibdsim2 package, and can be run locally with ibdsim2::launchApp(). The live version is available at https://magnusdv.shinyapps.io/ibdsim2-shiny/.

New app features

  • The simulations are now much faster than before. As a result, the default number of simulations has been increased from 50 to 500.

  • X-chromosomal IBD simulations are now supported.

  • The user can now choose the length unit for IBD segments; either centiMorgan ("cM", default) or megabytes ("Mb").

  • Fixed buggish unit conversion in the previous version: In some cases the segments were measured in Mb while the plot labels said "cM".

  • The random number seed can now be selected by the user.

  • More coherent layout and better pedigree plots.

  • New function launchApp() for running the app from within R.

Other

  • findPattern() now works as intended also for X-chromosomal simulations.
  • Various updates of docs and examples.
