Table 2. Running times for the three epistasis detection methods.

Sample size CSE MDR (exhaustive) MDR (filtered) BEAM
1600 69 s 480 s 16 s 134 s
800 54 s 390 s 12 s 102 s
400 40 s 190 s 7 s 75 s

Abbreviations: BEAM, Bayesian epistasis association mapping; CSE, cuckoo search epistasis; MDR, multifactorial dimensionality reduction; SNP, single-nucleotide polymorphism.

The running times were obtained from a data set with 1000 SNPs and different sample sizes of 400, 800 and 1600.
