Published in Computational Statistics & Data Analysis 27 (1998) pp 291-309. ESTIMATING POPULATION PROPORTIONS FROM IMPUTED DATA
Imputation estimates based on imputed values obtained from neural network models used in an 'impute first-aggregate next' approach, have been computed from Norwegian population census and administrative register data. The imputation estimates were compared with simple unbiased estimates obtained by the traditional 'aggregate first estimate next' approach and found to be superior for estimating ...
متن کاملEstimating individual admixture proportions from next generation sequencing data.
Inference of population structure and individual ancestry is important both for population genetics and for association studies. With next generation sequencing technologies it is possible to obtain genetic data for all accessible genetic variations in the genome. Existing methods for admixture analysis rely on known genotypes. However, individual genotypes cannot be inferred from low-depth seq...
متن کاملEstimating Genetic Ancestry Proportions from Faces
Ethnicity can be a means by which people identify themselves and others. This type of identification mediates many kinds of social interactions and may reflect adaptations to a long history of group living in humans. Recent admixture in the US between groups from different continents, and the historically strong emphasis on phenotypic differences between members of these groups, presents an opp...
متن کاملEstimating incident population distribution from prevalent data.
A prevalent sample consists of individuals who have experienced disease incidence but not failure event at the sampling time. We discuss methods for estimating the distribution function of a random vector defined at baseline for an incident disease population when data are collected by prevalent sampling. Prevalent sampling design is often more focused and economical than incident study design ...
متن کاملEstimating recombination rates from population genetic data.
We introduce a new method for estimating recombination rates from population genetic data. The method uses a computationally intensive statistical procedure (importance sampling) to calculate the likelihood under a coalescent-based model. Detailed comparisons of the new algorithm with two existing methods (the importance sampling method of Griffiths and Marjoram and the MCMC method of Kuhner an...
