diCal is a scalable demographic inference method based on the sequentially Markov conditional sampling distribution framework. At present, diCal can infer a piecewise-constant population size history from the genomes of multiple individuals sampled from a single population. We are currently working on extending the method to handle more complex demography, incorporating multiple populations, population splits, migration, admixture, etc.

Version 1.3 released on Jan 10, 2014. See "Files" tab for a description of updates.

*** Version 2 of diCal, which can handle complex population histories using whole-genome sequences from multiple populations, is available here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/dical2 ***

popanc
This program uses discriminant analysis and Markov chain Monte Carlo to infer local ancestry frequencies in an admixed population from genomic data. This is done in the context of a continuous correlated beta process model that accounts for expected autocorrelations in local ancestry frequencies...
est-sfs
est-sfs implements a maximum likelihood method to infer the unfolded site frequency spectrum (the uSFS) and ancestral state probabilities for DNA sequence data. The uSFS is a vector of counts of nucleotide sites with x derived allele copies in a sample of gene copies from a population. est-sfs...
socioeconomic determinants
Socioeconomic factors play distal roles in shaping populations’ health. In sub-Saharan Africa, these structural health determinants are strongly associated with intermediate determinants of under-5 mortality such as lifestyle factors, health seeking behaviour, or exposure to a health threat. The...
