snpGeneSets V1.12
The package integrates local genomic annotation databases based on NCBI dbSNP 138 and 142, Entrez Gene 105 and 106 and MSigDB V4.0, and provides genome-wide annotation for SNP, Gene and gene sets. It aims to support interpretation of genome-wide study (GWS) results and performing post-analysis. The package implements three categories of functions: 1) genomic mapping annotation for SNPs and genes, and function annotation for gene sets; 2) bidirectional mapping relationship between SNPs and genes, and between genes and gene sets; and 3) flexible gene effect measure by SNP association and function-related gene set/pathway identification by enrichment analysis. The auxiliary functions are also provided to facilitate annotation and analysis.

MDR-Phenomics
The software is written in C++ and it aims to detect gene-gene interaction in the pedigree and population data.

EMDR
The software is written in C++ and it aims to detect gene-gene interaction for population-based case control study. The software implemented different cross-validation and statistics for fast computing permutation p-value of multi-loci interactions for balanced or un-balanced case-control data.
