No parameter tuning is needed in the method, and no external information is needed. This R-package provides the calculation of polygenic risk scores from the given training summary statistics and testing data. We can use EB-PRS to extract main information, estimate Empirical Bayes parameters, derive polygenic risk scores for each individual in testing data, and evaluate the PRS according to AUC and predictive r2. See Song et al. (2020) for a detailed presentation of the method. authors: - family-names: Song given-names: Shuang email: song-s19@mails.tsinghua.edu.cn - family-names: Jiang given-names: Wei - family-names: Hou given-names: Lin - family-names: Zhao given-names: Hongyu repository: https://cranhaven.r-universe.dev commit: 443f8d554e15c5764f34784463efb9d776d059af date-released: '2026-05-14' contact: - family-names: Song given-names: Shuang email: song-s19@mails.tsinghua.edu.cn
