Abstract excerpt
Human populations have interacted throughout history, and a considerable portion of modern human populations show evidence of admixture. Local ancestry inference (LAI) is focused on detecting the genetic ancestry of chromosomal segments in admixed individuals and has wide applications. In this work, we proposed a new LAI method based on population-specific single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and applied it in...
