New add-on tool to MDLP World-22 calculator

Alex_Axe from Molgen forum announced the release of a new tool Oracle_AdMix4.

Basically, you can think of this tool as an useful add-on that extends the Oracle two-population results into four-population format.

Currently the tool support only DOS/Windows platform, and its usage is quite straightforward. The current distribution of  Oracle_AdMix4 includes the required file (data.txt) with the frequencies of 22 components in each of reference populations. The second file - input.txt - is the one you need to modify in order to use the tool on your own World-22 calculator results:

30     {Quantity of output results}
1,5    {Threshold of components to ignore noise} 
0,5    {Threshold of method to ignore noise}
2      {Power parameter for weighted method or zero for least-squares method}   
0      Pygmy
15     West-Asian
0      North-European-Mesolithic
0      Indo-Tibetan
0      Mesoamerican
0      Arctic-Amerind
0      South-America_Amerind
5      Indian
0      North-Siberean
25     Atlantic_Mediterranean_Neolithic
5      Samoedic
0      Indo-Iranian
0      East-Siberean
40     North-East-European
0      South-African
0      North-Amerind
0      Sub-Saharian
0      East-South-Asian
10     Near_East
0      Melanesian
0      Paleo-Siberian
0      Austronesian

All you need to do is to change the default values of components with your own results of World-22 calculator.

The output should appear in the following format:

1 Mordovian+Russian_South+Swedish+Swedish @ 20,749639
2 Estonian+Mordovian+Swedish+Swedish @ 23,267935
3 Finnish-North+Mordovian+Polish+Swedish @ 23,656645
4 Finnish-North+Mordovian+Russian_South+Swedish @ 23,83736
5 Estonian+Finnish-South+Mordovian+Swedish @ 24,192354
6 Mordovian+Polish+Swedish+Swedish @ 24,846391
7 Estonian+German-North+Mordovian+Swedish @ 25,176036
8 Lithuanian+Mordovian+Swedish+Swedish @ 25,511204
9 Finnish-North+Lithuanian+Mordovian+Swedish @ 25,523722
10 Finnish-South+Lithuanian_V+Mordovian+Swedish @ 25,539837

The component maps of MDLP-World22 calculator

I would like to express my gratitude to the fellow members of ABF - Loxias and Wojewoda- for creating amazing maps of components and plots showing interrelationships between 22 components.

Since the readers of my blog might be interested in visual inspecting of components , i have decided to upload them on-line. 

The first batch of maps  includes "the component portraits", created by Loxias:

West-Asian

Atlantic-Mediterranean

East-Siberian

Amerind

Indian

Indo-Iranian

Indo-Tibetan

Paleo-Siberian

Pygmy

Sub-Saharan

Near-East

North-East-European

North-Siberian

North-Mesolithic-European

 The second batch includes the PCA scatter plot of components, created by Wojewoda. PCA scatter plots one PCA component vs. another PCA component of data obtained from ancestry coefficients  collected for each of MDLP World22 components: the spots are connected over time to produce a trajectory for each component.
