False positives in the case of a population expansion
| HMMA | HMMB | CLsw | SF | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Error rate | 0.00 | 0.01 | 0.02 | 0.00 |
False positive rate due to population growth (population size increased by a factor 10, N/2 generations ago) is shown. HMMA, three-state model; HMMB, three-state model with estimated background emission probabilities; CLsw, Kim and Stephan's (2002) method; SF, SweepFinder (Nielsen et al. 2005). n = 30, L = 100 kb. Type I error is 5% for simulations with constant population size.
