Sim-cM: Raw Data Files

Text files are available from the links below for all relationships simulated to date (see Sim-cM White Paper for more information). You are welcome to use this data for other purposes, but if you do, please acknowledge Erin Hill-Burns and Sim-cM.

Each tab-delimited .txt file contains one row for each of the 10,000 simulated pedigrees, with summary statistics for the pair of relatives compared in each, including the following columns:

  • Rep = replicate number (between 1 and 10,000)
  • SegTotal = Total amount of shared DNA (in cM) (all segments)
  • SegCount = Number of segments of DNA shared (all segments)
  • SegMax = Size (in cM) of the largest segment of DNA shared (all segments)
  • SegTotal_7cM = Total amount of shared DNA (in cM) (segments < 7cM EXCLUDED)
  • SegCount_7cM = Number of segments shared (segments < 7cM EXCLUDED)
  • SegMax_7cM = Size (in cM) of the largest segment shared (segments < 7cM EXCLUDED)
