Localization of adaptive variants in human genomes using averaged one-dependence estimation

2017-12-04

Abstract excerpt

Statistical methods for identifying adaptive mutations from population-genetic data face several obstacles: assessing the significance of genomic outliers, integrating correlated measures of selection into one analytic framework, and distinguishing adaptive variants from hitchhiking neutral variants. Here, we introduce SWIF(r), a probabilistic method that detects selective sweeps by learning the distributions of m...
