ribd: Pedigree-based Relatedness Coefficients
Recursive algorithms for computing various relatedness coefficients,
including pairwise kinship, kappa and identity coefficients. Both autosomal
and X-linked coefficients are computed. Founders are allowed to be inbred.
In addition to the standard pairwise coefficients, ribd also computes a range
of lesser-known coefficients, including generalised kinship coefficients

Lange (1988) <https:www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1715269>),
two-locus coefficients (Thompson (1988) <doi:10.1093/imammb/5.4.261>) and
multi-person coefficients. This package is part of the ped suite,
a collection of packages for pedigree analysis with 'pedtools' as the core
package for creating and handling pedigree objects.
