Frequently asked questions

What types of genetic data can be used with Tomcat1.0 ?

Tomcat1.0 can handle binary data as well as polymorphic microsatellites.

Is the number of genetic markers limited?

The number of genetic markers is not limited.

Are missing data allowed?

The current version Tomcat1.0 does not allow for missing data.

What is the theory behind the Step-down MinP algorithm?

The Step-down MinP algorithm controls the Family Wise Error Rate, i.e. the probability of having at least one false-positive among all tests. The algorithm implemented here was recently proposed by Becker and Knapp [2004], and is an extension of the algorithm of Westfall and Young [1993]. See also documentation for the software SDMinP, available at www.dkfz.de/SDMinP for further details [Obreiter et al., 2005].

Which random number generator is used in Tomcat1.0 ?

The random number generator (RNG) in Tomcat1.0 is the default RNG implemented in the class XYZ in 1.4. You can either assign a seed for the RNG, or a seed will be chosen based on the computer time. The seed will be saved in the result file and in the file lastConfiguration.txt

Is there any problem to read the help documentation?

After downloading the executable 'Tomcat1.0.jar' into your system directory, please make sure that you also copy the 'Tomcat1.0_Documentation.html' and 'sharedLengthij_5.jpg' files into the same directory.

By clicking the 'Help topics' option in the Help menu of Tomcat program one can open the HTML documentation file on Internet Explorer.

Certain characters and symbols may be missing if the HTML documentation file is opened on web browsers other than Internet Explorer.
