LD clumping for identifying independent variants.
LD clumping identifies independent index variants by iteratively selecting the variant with the highest χ² statistic and pruning all variants in high LD with it. Clumping + thresholding is a popular (though suboptimal) way of computing polygenic scores.
For usage examples, see the LD Clumping guide.
