Abstract
Displaying an indication of ancestral data is disclosed. An indication that a genetic interval corresponds to a reference interval that has a likelihood of having one or more ancestral origins is received. One or more graphic display parameters are determined based at least in part on the indication. An indication of the one or more ancestral origins is visually displayed using the one or more graphic display parameters.
Claims20
A computer-implemented method comprising:
- obtaining genetic data, wherein the genetic data was read from a plurality of chromosomes of an individual;
- partitioning each of the chromosomes into genetic intervals based on a table that maps known genetic intervals to known rates of occurrence of the known genetic intervals within a reference population;
- determining, based on the table and for the genetic intervals, corresponding rates of occurrence within the reference population;
- determining, based on the corresponding rates of occurrence within the reference population, ancestral origins for the genetic intervals of the individual;
- generating, for display on a graphical user interface, representations of the genetic intervals indicating the ancestral origins in accordance with graphic display parameters;
- and
- providing, to the graphical user interface, the representations of the genetic intervals.

A computer-implemented method comprising:
- obtaining genetic data for a reference population associated with an ancestral origin;
- partitioning, for individuals in the reference population, chromosomes of the individuals into genetic intervals;
- determining, for the genetic intervals, rates of occurrence within the reference population;
- populating a table that maps the genetic intervals to the rates of occurrence within the reference population;
- and
- determining, based on the rates of occurrence, ancestral origins for corresponding genetic intervals of an individual that is not in the reference population.

A computer-implemented method comprising:
- obtaining genetic data of an individual;
- determining that a genetic interval of the genetic data matches a reference genetic interval, wherein the reference genetic interval has a likelihood of having an ancestral origin;
- determining graphic display parameters corresponding to the ancestral origin;
- generating, for display on a graphical user interface, a representation of the genetic interval indicating the ancestral origin in accordance with the graphic display parameters;
- and
- providing, to the graphical user interface, the representation of the genetic interval.
