Abstract excerpt
Accurately characterizing genetic ancestry is critical for ensuring reproducibility and fairness in genomic studies and downstream health research. This study aims to address the prediction of ancestry from genetic data using deep learning, with a focus on generalizability across datasets with diverse populations and on explainability to improve model transparency. We adapt the Diet Network, a deep-learning...
