The Fast Unbiased and Exact Allelic Test is dedicated to case-control association studies using bi-allelic markers. Since the allelic test as it is classically performed via Chi-square or Fischer-exact tests, introduce a bias that results in putative false predictions, we developped this test as an efficient alternative. It computes an unbiased and exact p-value. Fast (due to a clever implementation) and availbable under different versions, this test is convenient for any use.
