Ancestral inference from haplotypes and mutations
We consider inference about the history of a sample of DNA sequences, conditional upon the haplotype counts and the number of segregating sites observed at the present time. After deriving some theoretical results in the coalescent setting, we implement rejection sampling and importance sampling schemes to perform the inference. The importance sampling scheme addresses an extension of the Ewens...
متن کاملEfficient Inference of Haplotypes from Genotypes on a Pedigree with Mutations and Missing Alleles (Extented Abstract)
Driven by the international HapMap project, the haplotype inference problem has become an important topic in the computational biology community. In this paper, we study how to efficiently infer haplotypes from genotypes of related individuals as given by a pedigree. Our assumption is that the input pedigree data may contain de novo mutations and missing alleles but is free of genotyping errors...
متن کاملReconstructing Ancestral Haplotypes with a Dictionary Model
We propose a dictionary model for haplotypes. According to the model, a haplotype is constructed by randomly concatenating haplotype segments from a given dictionary of segments. A haplotype block is defined as a set of haplotype segments that begin and end with the same pair of markers. In this framework, haplotype blocks can overlap, and the model provides a setting for testing the accuracy o...
متن کاملAncestral Causal Inference
Constraint-based causal discovery from limited data is a notoriously difficult challenge due to the many borderline independence test decisions. Several approaches to improve the reliability of the predictions by exploiting redundancy in the independence information have been proposed recently. Though promising, existing approaches can still be greatly improved in terms of accuracy and scalabil...
متن کاملAncestral Inference from Functional Data: Statistical Methods and Numerical Examples
Many biological characteristics of evolutionary interest are not scalar variables but continuous functions. Here we use phylogenetic Gaussian process regression to model the evolution of simulated functionvalued traits. Given function-valued data only from the tips of an evolutionary tree and utilising independent principal component analysis (IPCA) as a method for dimension reduction, we const...
