To assess the power and significance of the likelihood ratio (LR) and the identity-by-state scoring (IBS) methods for a pair of siblings, we performed computer simulations by use of 10 DNA markers (HLA-DQalpha, D1S80, and 8 short tandem repeat loci) that were frequently analyzed in paternity tests in Japan.

The likelihood ratio incorporates both the sensitivity and specificity of the test and provides a direct estimate of how much a test result will change the odds of having a disease. The likelihood ratio for a positive result (LR+) tells you how much the odds of the disease increase when a test is positive.

The Likelihood Ratio (LR) is the likelihood that a given test result would be expected in a patient with the target disorder compared to the likelihood that that same result would be expected in a patient without the target disorder.

Likelihood ratio theory has had tremendous success in parametric inference, due to the fundamental theory of Wilks. Yet, there is no general applicable approach for nonparametric inferences based on function estimation.
