Extended Data Fig. 4. Performance of S* and hmmix.

Extended Data Fig. 4

Precision-recall curves for the S* statistic as implemented in sstar31 and for hmmix. Main model refers to a model taking the weighted median posteriors from the ABC-based null demography presented herein (Extended Data Fig. 2A). Worst model refers to a model taking the maximum value of the 95% credible interval for all ancestral Ne parameters from the ABC-based null demography. For the S* statistic we consider the target population as alternately eastern lowland or mountain gorillas, eg Main Model EL. Worst mis-specified is where we generate simulated data under the worst model but run the S* analysis using the ‘quantile’ or outlier values inferred under the main model. Skov=hmmix method, EL=eastern lowland gorillas, M=mountain gorillas.
