Joint likelihood-free inference of the number of selected single nucleotide polymorphisms and their selection coefficients in an evolving population.

Abstract excerpt

Because exact likelihood is often intractable, likelihood-free inference plays an important role in population genetics. Indeed, several methodological developments in Approximate Bayesian computation (ABC) were inspired by applications in population genetics. Here, we explore a novel combination of recently proposed ABC tools capable of handling high-dimensional summary statistics and apply them to infer...
