Computing inbreeding coefficients in large populations
Open accessAbstract
Summary - An algorithm for computing inbreeding coefficients in large populations is presented. It is especially useful in large populations because of the small size of the memory required, which is linear with population size, and its speed, if the number of generations involved is not too large, ie not larger than about 12. The method is compared with 2 other methods for computational speed and memory requirement. The presented algorithm is suited for situations where the inbreeding coefficients for a few new animals are to be computed given that their ancestor’s inbreeding coefficients were calculated previously.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
