SNPpips array for BANN_numpy returning 1 as first value

[sandraleebatista]

Hello,
Is there a reason why the SNPpips array always returns 1 as the first value in the array? I have tried it on the example in BANN_numpy folder and on my own data. Would this be interpreted as first feature having the highest PIP? My understanding is that the features have PIPs returned in order entered. Is this correct and is there a reason why this may be happening?

Thanks,
Sandra

Hi Sandra,

Great question. Yes, features have PIPs returned in order entered. So in the example data, the first couple of SNPs are causal (https://github.com/lcrawlab/BANNs/blob/master/BANN/examples_docs/BANNs_example.ipynb). I have not seen your data yet but happy to talk this through!
