From: Stairway Plot 2: demographic history inference with folded SNP frequency spectra
Comparison of demographic inferences with simulation. a Comparison of Stairway Plot 2 with folded or unfolded SFSs using the same average SFS from 200 simulations. b Comparison of Stairway Plot 2 with folded SFSs vs. Stairway Plot 1, PSMC, SMC++, MSMC, and MSMC2, using the same simulated sequences from 200 simulations assuming a zig-zag model [2]. Each simulation simulates 100 diploids with 10 chromosomes; each chromosome is 10 MB. Only one estimation for each simulated sample was used for Stairway Plot 1 and Stairway Plot 2. MSMC and MSMC2 group samples with every 4 haplotypes (4hap) or every 10 haplotypes (10hap). Black line: true model. Thick orange line: median of 200 estimations. Thin orange lines: 2.5% and 97.5% confidence limits for 200 estimations
