Abstract

Correctly modeling population structure is important for understanding recent evolution and for association studies in humans. While pre-existing knowledge of population history can be used to specify expected levels of subdivision, objective metrics to detect population structure are important and may even be preferable for identifying groups in some situations. One such metric for genomic scale data is implemented in the cross-validation procedure of the program ADMIXTURE, but it has not been evaluated on recently diverged and potentially cryptic levels of population structure. Here, I develop a new method, AdmixKJump, and test both metrics under this scenario.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 24 March 2015.
All research outputs
#20,265,771
of 22,796,179 outputs
Outputs from Source Code for Biology and Medicine
#111
of 127 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#296,500
of 352,408 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Source Code for Biology and Medicine
#4
of 6 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,796,179 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 127 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 8.0. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 352,408 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 6 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than 2 of them.
