Note: The best number in each cell is bold faced. The displayed error rate is the proportion of incorrectly imputed genotypes. Minimac 4 and Impute 5’s runs use the results of a prephasing step done by Beagle 5.1, whose time and memory usage are reported in brackets. For the sim 1M data, the m3vcf reference panel required for Minimac could not be computed due to excessive memory requirements.
