The effects of changing the quality function being optimized on the Chromosome 22 Caucasian genotype data set. The x-axis represents the number of SNPs genotyped, and the y-axis shows the fraction of informativeness captured. The solid line shows the informativeness if tagging SNPs are chosen optimally, the dashed line shows the informativeness if the tagging SNPs are selected by maximizing average haplotype r2 correlation, and the dotted line shows the informativeness from choosing random sets of tagging SNPs.
