ibdsim2 2.1.0
This version includes a major update of the shiny app frontend to ibdsim2. Previously developed in a separate repository (accessible at https://github.com/magnusdv/ibdsim2-legacy/), the app is now included as part of the ibdsim2 package, and can be run locally with ibdsim2::launchApp(). The live version is available at https://magnusdv.shinyapps.io/ibdsim2-shiny/.
New app features
-
The simulations are now much faster than before. As a result, the default number of simulations has been increased from 50 to 500.
-
X-chromosomal IBD simulations are now supported.
-
The user can now choose the length unit for IBD segments; either centiMorgan ("cM", default) or megabytes ("Mb").
-
Fixed buggish unit conversion in the previous version: In some cases the segments were measured in Mb while the plot labels said "cM".
-
The random number seed can now be selected by the user.
-
More coherent layout and better pedigree plots.
-
New function
launchApp()for running the app from within R.
Other
findPattern()now works as intended also for X-chromosomal simulations.- Various updates of docs and examples.
