Model Comparison between DyStruct, ADMIXTURE, and PCA on samples analyzed from Europe and the Near East
Left: DyStruct and ADMIXTURE’s ancestry estimates on ancient samples when run with K = 10 on 2,329 ancient and modern samples analyzed. Within population samples are ordered by major contributing cluster. Right: Projection of ancient samples onto the principal components of 860 modern West Eurasians. DyStruct identifies five clusters consistent with PCA: European hunter-gatherers (dark blue), Anatolian/European farmers (dark green), Natufians/Neolithic Levant (dark yellow), Caucasus hunter-gatherers (light green), and Neolithic Iran (brown). In ADMIXTURE, Neolithic Levant, and European farmers appear admixed.
