indProbs: Probability of contribution of each individual
Description
This function computes the probability of contribution for each individual of
a given pool. Please note that this function works for a single pool and
should not be directly applied to situations where multiple pools were used.
Usage
indProbs(np, nSNPs, pError)
Value
a matrix with the probabilities of contribution for each individual.
Each row represents a different individual and each column is a different
site.
Arguments
np
an integer specifying how many individuals were pooled.
nSNPs
an integer indicating how many SNPs exist in the data.
pError
an integer representing the value of the error associated with
DNA pooling. This value is related with the unequal individual contribution
towards the total number of reads contributed by a single pool - the higher
the value the more unequal are the individual contributions.
