Notes from the time I went (July 2015)

SISG 9 - Population Genetics

Taught by Bruce Weir and Jerome Jerome Goudet. ​Homepage for the R scripts from the workshop.

• ​R basics (very quick).
  • It did help me learn about data.frame, and lists, they make much more sense now.
• ​Allele Frequency and Hardy-Weinberg
  • I want to know if there's a continuous function that describes the maximum value of the binomial distribution from 0-1. Seems like there should be.
  • The EM algorithm for Two loci isn't guaranteed to converge, sometimes it gets stuck flipping back and forth between two intermediate values. Seems easy to fix, but it'd be curious to know if there was some distribution of genotypes that was guaranteed to break it.
