An LdScore reference (per-variant LD scores, weights, and per-block LD matrices) for the LD-score-based heritability estimators (estimateH2 with method = "sldsc" or "gldsc"). Built by buildLdScore over the first 14 chr22 LD blocks of the de-identified protocol_example reference, from the same simulated 20,000-person panel as ldEigenExample, and describes the same variants.

The per-block LD matrices are retained because "gldsc" and stratified "sldsc" both need them; unstratified "sldsc" reads only the scores.

Format

An LdScore object (extends LdStatistic) carrying ldScores, ldScoreWeights, and ldMatrixList over 1300 variants in 14 LD blocks.
