deconvolve

Description

deconvolve ranks the set of the most conditional posterior probability of genotypes the STR DNA mixture given a fitted model under a hypothesis.

Usage

deconvolve(mlefit, alpha = 0.95, maxlist = 1000)

Arguments

mlefit

Fitted object using contLikMLE function.

alpha

Required sum of the listed posterior probabilities.

maxlist

The ranked deconvolved profile list will not exceed this number (used to avoid endless search).

Details

The procedure calculates the likelihood for each single locus. Then it combines the most probable genotypes from each loci to produce a ranked list of deconvolved profiles.

Function calls procedure in c++ by using the package Armadillo and Boost.

Value

ret A list(table1,table2,table3,table4,rankGi,rankG,pG) where rankG is the ranked genotypes with corresponding probabilities in pG. rankgGi is the same, but per marker. table1 is rankG and pG combined (joint results). table2 uses rankGi to find marginal results for top-genotypes. table3 and table4 shows this marginalized on genotypes and alleles per contributor
