Abstract
A computing server may use one or more recommender systems to predict phenotypes of individuals based on survey responses, other phenotypes, environmental factors, and genetic data of the individuals. The computing server may retrieve survey responses of a set of individuals regarding a set of phenotypes of the individuals. The computing server may construct a matrix that includes the values of the phenotypes. The computing server may predict an undetermined phenotype of a target individual using collaborative filtering, which provides the prediction based on other phenotypes of the target individuals and based on at least another individual's phenotypes. The computing server may also predict a target phenotype based on the phenotype of other individuals who are similar to the target individual. The computing server may determine another individual is similar to the target individual based on the length of identity-by-descent (IBD) segments between the two individuals.
