Missing data in genotyping single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) spots are common. High-throughput genotyping methods usually have a high rate of missing data. For example, the published human chromosome 21 data by Patil et al. contains about 20% missing SNPs. Inferring missing SNPs using the haplotype block structure is promising but difficult because the haplotype block boundaries are not well defined. Here we propose a global algorithm to overcome this difficulty.
