By offering an unprecedented picture of the human genome, genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have been expected to fully explain the genetic background of complex diseases. So far, the results have been mitigated to say the least. This, among other things, can be partially attributed to the adopted statistical methodology, which does not often take into account interaction between genetic variants, or epistasis. The detection of epistasis through statistical models presents several challenges for which we develop in this thesis a pair of adequate tools. The first tool, epiGWAS, uses causal inference to detect epistatic interactions between a target SNP and the rest of the genome. The second tool, kernelPSI, instead uses kernel methods t...
