Description: Offers the Generalized Berk-Jones (GBJ) test for set-based inference in genetic
	association studies. The GBJ is designed as an alternative to tests such as Berk-Jones (BJ),
    Higher Criticism (HC), Generalized Higher Criticism (GHC), Minimum p-value (minP), and Sequence
    Kernel Association Test (SKAT). All of these other methods (except for SKAT) are also implemented 
    in this package, and we  additionally provide an omnibus test (OMNI) which integrates information from each of the tests.
    The GBJ has been shown to outperform other tests in genetic association studies when signals
    are correlated and moderately sparse. For more details, please ask for a preprint of our
    manuscript or see the vignette for a quickstart guide.
