  1. Using Dirichlet Process Priors For Bayesian Mixture Clustering

    … that a population is characterized by a set of allele frequencies that follow multinomial distributions. The Dirichlet Process is applied as the prior distribution. The method estimates the number of populations together with the allele frequencies and the ancestry coefficients of each …

The use of allele frequencies from the background population aids the statistical interpretation of a match and can be used to calculate the random match probability. In South Africa, allele frequency data for the background population is currently limited, …
