Abstract:Background:Determining population structure helps us understand connections among different populations and how they evolve over time. This knowledge is important for studies ranging from evolutionary biology to largescale variant-trait association studies. Current approaches to determining population structure include model-based approaches, statistical approaches, and distance-based ancestry inference approaches. In this work, we outline an approach that identi es population structure from k-mer frequencies … Show more
