Poisson regression is not a good model for filtering variants anymore #394

Closed ArtPoon closed 2 years ago

ArtPoon commented 2 years ago

Genomic diversity has undergone bottlenecks, so much of the variation in divergence has been restarting from more recent common ancestors.

This isn't really an issue in the sense that current variation is much narrower than expected under the Poisson model
