AutocorQ
Developed by Olivier Hardy
Description
AutocorQ is a simple software to characterise and test the spatial autocorrelation of quantitative traits. It computes Moran's I statistics, can provide pairwise autocorrelation coefficient between individuals, and computes the slope of the linear regression of these coefficients on the spatial distance or its logarithm. The significance of the coefficients is assessed by random permutation tests.
Computer requirement
AutocorQ runs on PC under Windows 9x or later versions, or under VirtualPC for Macintosh user's.
How to run AutocorQ
AutocorQ has no nice user-friendly windows but it does not require installation; just bring the AutocorQ.exe file and the data file (that you call "qin.txt") in some folder and double-click on AutocorQ.exe icon, the rest is written on the screen, but we suggest that you first have a look at the manual.
