Estimating evolutionary and demographic parameters via ARG-derived IBD
by Zhendong Huang, Jerome Kelleher, Yao-ban Chan, David Balding
Inference of evolutionary and demographic parameters from a sample of genome sequences often proceeds by first inferring identical-by-descent (IBD) genome segments. By exploiting efficient data encoding based on the ancestral recombination graph (ARG), we obtain three major advantages over current approaches: (i) no need to impose a length threshold on IBD segments, (ii) IBD can be defined without the hard-to-verify requirement of no recombination...
