Genome-wide Association Study of Social Isolation in 63 497 Japanese Individuals from the General Population

This study identifies genetic loci associated with social isolation in a Japanese population using GWAS, finding associations with ACADSB, HMX3, LINC02315, and LRFN5.

Deep embedded clustering by relevant scales and genome-wide association study in autism

The paper clusters ASD patients using a deep embedded algorithm and performs cluster-based GWAS, identifying 90 significant loci associated with ASD subgroups.

A fine-scale genetic map of the Japanese population

This paper constructs a fine-scale genetic map of the Japanese population using whole-genome sequencing data, identifies recombination hotspots, and shows improved haplotype phasing and imputation accuracy.

Clustering by phenotype and genome-wide association study in autism

The paper uses clustering and genome-wide association studies to identify subgroups in autism spectrum disorder and finds significant loci associated with these subgroups.
