Projects
Local ancestry inference
ALLOY is a fast and accurate method for local ancestry inference, which is the problem of labeling each position of the genome with an ancestral origin.
IBD inference
We have developed PARENTE and PARENTE2, fast and accurate methods for detecting IBD in increasingly large cohorts.
