Text

The studies analysed with IMPUTE typically used an additional filter to exclude imputed genotypes with a posterior probability <0.9 for IMPUTE. The proper_info measurement is interpretable as a value of x (between 0 and 1) means (approximately) that the amount of statistical information (about the parameter of interest in the model) at the imputed SNP is equivalent to perfect genotype data in a sample 100×% as big as the used sample size.
