NB (version 0.9)

NB.likelihood: Log-likelihood values for the NB estimator

Description

This will return return the log-likelihood value given a value of N.

Usage

NB.likelihood(N, infile, alleles, sample.interval)

Arguments

N

The effective population size dor diploid individuals.

infile

Your input data file in a plain text format. This data contains the allele counts at each locus and from each sampling time point.

alleles

a vector containing the number of alleles at each locus. For example, c(4, 4, 4) would mean that 3 loci are sampled, with 4 alleles each.

sample.interval

a vector stating at which generations the samples were taken. For example, c(0, 8) would indicate that two samples were collected from the 0th and 8th generation.
