Perspective: Genomic inference using diffusion models and the allele frequency spectrum

2018-07-23

Abstract excerpt

Evolutionary, biological, and demographic processes combine to shape the variation observed in populations. Understanding how these processes are expected to influence variation allows us to infer past demographic events and the nature of selection in human populations. Forward models such as the diffusion approximation provide a powerful tool for analyzing the distribution of allele frequencies in contemporary po...
