Genetic and linguistic histories in Central Asia inferred using approximate Bayesian computations.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 30 Aug 2017

Thouzeau Valentin, Mennecier Philippe, Verdu Paul, Austerlitz Frédéric

Abstract excerpt

Linguistic and genetic data have been widely compared, but the histories underlying these descriptions are rarely jointly inferred. We developed a unique methodological framework for analysing jointly language diversity and genetic polymorphism data, to infer the past history of separation, exchange and admixture events among human populations. This method relies on approximate Bayesian computations that enable...
