Genome-wide association studies have successfully identified hundreds of novel genetic variants associated with many complex human diseases. However, there is a lack of rigorous work on evaluating the statistical power for identifying these variants. In this paper, we consider sparse signal...

Copy number variant is an important type of genetic structural variation appearing in germline DNA, ranging from common to rare in a population. Both rare and common copy number variants have been reported to be associated with complex diseases, so it is important to identify both simultaneously...
