Table 3.
  • structure was run using the ADMIXTURE model, while EIGENSTRAT and ADMIXTURE were run under their default settings. structure was allowed 2000 burnin iterations; thereafter, 200 iterations were used for point estimates, or 1000 iterations if credible intervals were required in addition. The one exception is IBD (K = 3), for which 10,000 burnin iterations were required as described earlier. ADMIXTURE'S standard error estimation used 200 bootstrap replicates. Experiments were performed on an Intel Xeon 2.8 GHz machine. Runtimes are given as hours:minutes.
