Interpreting Supervised Machine Learning Inferences in Population Genomics Using Haplotype Matrix Permutations
Abstract. Supervised machine learning methods, such as convolutional neural networks (CNNs), that use haplotype matrices as input data have become powerful

Excited to share my first PhD project with my mentor, @johriparul.bsky.social! We examine how Hill–Robertson interference (HRI) in highly selfing species biases estimates of the distribution of fitness effects of new mutations (DFE).

Short thread on my updated work with @gutengroup.mcb.arizona.edu "Detection of Domestication Signals through the Analysis of the Full Distribution of Fitness Effects", latest version at: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... Here we simulate a kind of canonical and idealised domestication process.
Detection of Domestication Signals through the Analysis of the Full Distribution of Fitness Effects
Domestication is a process marked by complex interactions between demographic changes and selective pressures, which together shape genetic diversity. While the phenotypic outcomes of domestication ar...
