Figure 7From: The Cluster Variation Method for Efficient Linkage Analysis on Extended PedigreesComparison of CVM and MCMC error. Error of CVM estimate obtained with cluster choice C1 versus error of MCMC for a marker spacing of 5 cM compared to exact results obtained with Vitesse. MCMC is alotted the same computation time as CVM. CVM yields more accurate estimates than MCMC.Back to article page
