!!!Method

Reconstruction of haplotypes from genotype data is a crucial step in related haplotype studies. In this paper, a new haplotype inference method based on Markov chain model for population-based haplotype reconstruction is proposed. The haplotype inference methods based on Markov chain model do not assume haplotype blocks in the population and allows each individual haplotype to have its own structure, thus are able to accommodate recombination and obtain higher adaptivity to the genotype data, specifically in the case of long marker maps. The proposed method presents a general Markov chain model for haplotype inference problem. A dynamic programming algorithm is developed for the model. The algorithm is theoretically guaranteed to find exact global optimal solutions within polynomial running time. Through extensive computational experiments on simulated and real genotype data, the designed algorithm is shown to be efficient, and outperforms previous methods.
