Introduction

Minimac4 is a latest version in the series of genotype imputation software - preceded by Minimac3 (2015), Minimac2 (2014), minimac (2012) and MaCH (2010). Minimac4 is a lower memory and more computationally efficient implementation of the original algorithms with negligible fall in imputation quality.

Download

Minimac4 is currently available for testing purposes only (while we still run more tests and wait on feedback about potential bugs). Commonly used reference panels in M3VCF format are available for download in Reference Panels.

The Minimac3 mailing list has been renamed as the Minimac4 mailing list. If you were already a member, no need to re-join. If not, please join our mailing list to get updates about future releases or report possible bugs or email them to Sayantan Das.
