Description

minimac website  

Minimac is a low memory, computationally efficient implementation of the MaCH algorithm for genotype imputation. It is designed to work on phased genotypes and can handle very large reference panels with hundreds or thousands of haplotypes. The name has two parts. The first, "mini", refers to the modest amount of computational resources it requires. The second, "mac", is short hand for MaCH, our widely used algorithm for genotype imputation.

Environment Modules

Run module spider minimac to find out what environment modules are available for this application.

System Variables

  • HPC_MINIMAC_DIR - installation directory
