http://genome.sph.umich.edu/wiki/Minimac

Software application that is a low memory, computationally efficient implementation of the MaCH algorithm for genotype imputation. It is designed to work on phased genotypes and can handle very large reference panels with hundreds or thousands of haplotypes. The name has two parts. The first, mini, refers to the modest amount of computational resources it requires. The second, mac, is short hand for MaCH, our widely used algorithm for genotype imputation.

http://www.sanger.ac.uk/resources/software/peer/

Software collection of Bayesian approaches to infer hidden determinants and their effects from gene expression profiles using factor analysis methods. Applications of PEER have * detected batch effects and experimental confounders * increased the number of expression QTL findings by threefold * allowed inference of intermediate cellular traits, such as transcription factor or pathway activations This project offers an efficient and versatile C++ implementation of the underlying algorithms with user-friendly interfaces to R and python.
