Various statistical methods important for genetic analysis are considered and
developed. Namely, we concentrate on the multifactor dimensionality reduction,
logic regression, random forests and stochastic gradient boosting. These
methods and their new modifications, e.g., the MDR method with "independent
rule", are used to study the risk of complex diseases such as cardiovascular
ones. The roles of certain combinations of single nucleotide polymorphisms and
external risk factors are examined. To perform the data analysis concerning the
ischemic heart disease and myocardial infarction the supercomputer SKIF
"Chebyshev" of the Lomonosov Moscow State University was employed
