Local ancestry prediction with PyLAE

PeerJ. 2021. Article 12502.
Moshkov N., Smetanin A., Tatarinova T.

We developed PyLAE, a new tool for determining local ancestry along a genome using whole-genome sequencing data or high-density genotyping experiments. PyLAE can process an arbitrarily large number of ancestral populations (with or without an informative prior). Since PyLAE does not involve estimating many parameters, it can process thousands of genomes within a day. PyLAE can run on phased or unphased genomic data. We have shown how PyLAE can be applied to the identification of differentially enriched pathways between populations. The local ancestry approach results in higher enrichment scores compared to whole-genome approaches. We benchmarked PyLAE using the 1000 Genomes dataset, comparing the aggregated predictions with the global admixture results and the current gold standard program RFMix. Computational efficiency, minimal requirements for data pre-processing, straightforward presentation of results, and ease of installation make PyLAE a valuable tool to study admixed populations.

Effects of Elevation Changes and Multilevel Structures on Vehicular Signal Propagation
Stepanyants V., Andrey V. Fizulin, Chibirov A. et al., FUTURE TRANSPORTATION 2026 Vol. 6 No. 5 Article 225
Reliable Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) evaluation requires propagation models that represent terrain and multilevel infrastructure. Most integrated vehicular simulators still rely on planar models, but the magnitude of the resulting bias is unclear. This study quantitatively compares flattened two-dimensional (2D) and terrain-aware three-dimensional (3D) variants of three scenarios using identical Sionna RT settings. The pipeline combines OpenStreetMap ...

Automated Ranking of Soybean Plots from Close-Range RGB Video via Depth Filtering and Point-Based Counting
Groshev Maksim, Rybakov Petr, Teterin N. et al., Sensors 2026 Article 6171
Manual assessment of soybean yield components, such as pod number, is laborious, time-consuming, and subjective. Existing computer-vision approaches based on object detection or instance segmentation perform poorly on close-range RGB imagery of soybean canopies due to severe occlusions, ambiguous plant boundaries, and the high cost of bounding-box annotation. To address these challenges, we propose a ...

Инкрементальный метод обновления многомерного куба по неупорядоченному потоку событий журналов информационных систем
Zykov S. V., Уфимцев Г. А., Моделирование, оптимизация и информационные технологии 2026 Т. 14 № 8 С. 1–13
Информационные системы формируют большие объёмы событийных журналов, которые используются для анализа работы приложений и сервисов. При этом события могут поступать в аналитический контур позже момента их фактического возникновения и не в исходном порядке. Такая рассинхронизация приводит к ошибкам при построении агрегированных временных показателей, а регулярный полный пересчёт многомерного аналитического куба требует значительных вычислительных затрат. Целью ...

Enhancing Boundary Stability in Decision Trees and Random Forests: A Weighted Sample Duplication Approach
Konstantinov A., Elizarova Anastasiya P., Utkin L., Computing, Telecommunications and Control 2026 Vol. 19 No. 1 P. 16–25
Decision trees and their ensemble extensions, such as random forests, are widely used as classification models due to their simplicity and interpretability. However, in many real-world tasks where class labels overlap in the feature space, standard decision trees rely on hard splits that create fragile decision boundaries. In these regions, small perturbations in the input ...

HLA class I escape drives the evolution of SARS-CoV-2 in human populations
Ekaterina D. Riumina, Klink G. V., Alekseeva E. et al., PNAS, США 2026 Vol. 123 No. 35 P. 1–20
The role of escape from the cytotoxic T cell (CTL) response in SARS-CoV-2 evolution remains controversial. Here, we study the origin and spread of SARS-CoV-2 variants whose mutations reduce presentation by the HLA class I alleles common in human populations. We find that 35% of mutations that are characteristic of the variants of concern, and ...

Bayesian Adaptive Sparse Copula
Prokhorov A., Burda M., Journal of Computational and Graphical Statistics 2026 P. 1–13
Bayesian nonparametric density estimation procedures are typically based on single-scale priors, such as Dirichlet process mixtures. Alternative multiscale density priors built on decision trees have many well-known advantages, including the ability to characterize abrupt local changes and to provide an estimate with a desired level of resolution. Despite their theoretical appeal, multiscale methods have typically ...

How Much Could We Trust the Inferred Neanderthal Segments?
Ilina A., Planche L., Shchur V., Lobachevskii Journal of Mathematics 2025 No. 46 P. 3537–3544
Many modern human populations contain archaic Neanderthal segments through the archaic introgression event, which occurred 45,000–55,000 years ago. There are a few computational methods that could infer such tracts. The results of their inference is used in the downstream analysis to better understand the impact of the archaic component on the genetic diversity of modern ...

Understanding admixture fractions: theory and estimation of gene-flow
Liang M., Shishkin M., Shchur V. et al., Journal of Mathematical Biology 2024 Vol. 89 Article 47
Estimation of admixture proportions has become one of the most commonly used computational tools in population genomics. However, there is remarkably little population genetic theory on statistical properties of these variables. We develop theoretical results that can accurately predict means and variances of admixture proportions within a population using models with recombination and genetic drift. ...

Inferring Adaptive Introgression Using Hidden Markov Models
Svedberg J., Shchur V., Reinman S. et al., Molecular Biology and Evolution 2021 Vol. 38 No. 5 P. 2152–2165
Adaptive introgression—the flow of adaptive genetic variation between species or populations—has attracted significant interest in recent years and it has been implicated in a number of cases of adaptation, from pesticide resistance and immunity, to local adaptation. Despite this, methods for identification of adaptive introgression from population genomic data are lacking. Here, we present Ancestry_HMM-S, ...
