BinaryDosage: Creates, Merges, and Reads Binary Dosage Files
Tools to create binary dosage files from either VCF
or GEN files, merge binary dosage files, and read
binary dosage files. Binary dosage files tend to have quicker
read times than VCF and GEN formats. There is a small increase
in size compared to compressed VCF and GEN files.
