Modelling complex population structure using <i>F</i> -statistics and Principal Component Analysis

2021-07-13

Abstract excerpt

Human genetic diversity is shaped by our complex history. Data-driven methods such as Principal Component Analysis (PCA) are an important population genetic tool to understand this method. Here, I contrast PCA with a set of statistics motivated by trees ( F -statistics). Here, I show that these two methods are closely related, and I derive explicit connections between the two approaches. I show that F -statistic...
