Demographic Inference
- diCal Version 1 [ Link ]
Software accompaniment to "Sheehan, S.*, Harris, K.*, Song, Y.S. Estimating variable effective population sizes from multiple genomes: A sequentially Markov conditional sampling distribution approach. Genetics, 194 (2013) 647-662." "Chan, A.H., Jenkins, P.A., and Song, Y.S.
diCal Version 1 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.

Bresler, M., Sheehan, S., Chan, A.H., and Song, Y.S. Telescoper: De novo Assembly of Highly Repetitive Regions. ECCB'12 Special Issue, Bioinformatics, 28 (2012) i311-i317.
Telescoper is a local assembly algorithm designed for short-reads from NGS platforms such as Illumina. The reads must come from two libraries: one short insert, and one long insert. The algorithm begins with a user-given seed string, and assembles a graph of possible extensions, and prints one path of extensions, as a fasta file. The software is still a beta version. We have not yet tested it extensively, and envision many improvements down the line.

This program combines a recently found linear-time algorithm for phasing genotypes on trees with a tree-based method for association mapping. From unphased genotype data, our algorithm builds local phylogenies along the genome, and scores each tree according to the clustering of cases and controls.
