Population identification accuracy for codon aversion

Population Total individuals Number of clusters Percent accuracy
East Asia 504 26 95.0397
Africa 661 94 85.9304
Europe 503 216 57.2565
South Asia 489 214 56.4417

Using an alignment-free phylogenomic algorithm that analyzes only codon aversion usages across a genome, individuals in the 1000 Genomes Projects were clustered in a phylogeny (i.e. similar to a pedigree). Cluster accuracy was determined based on the number of clusters (i.e. clades) of individuals belonging the same superpopulation, where a new cluster was formed when an individual from a different population was added to the cluster. The table shows the superpopulation, the number of individuals in that population, the number of clusters identified using the phylogenomic algorithm and the percent accuracy of the classification.
