A visual illustration of SNP "blocking" and random sampling, used for generating simulated individuals. "Ind i" denotes the ith real individual, and "Sim Ind" denotes the simulated individual. First, genomes of the real individuals are segmented into a number of blocks; second, for each block, a genome segment is randomly drawn from the set of real individuals; finally, the randomly drawn genome segments, for all blocks, are stitched together to form a simulated individual.
