parental and child haplotypes and . The intuition behind our approach is that true recombination events and SEs will cause changes to the pattern of gene flow as we move along a chromosome. Since we expect just a few true recombination events the SEs will tend to dominate. Thus we can think of the observed pattern of gene flow as the superposition of two point processes: one with a low rate dictated by true recombinations, and a second process with a rate relating to SEs. Our aim is to deconvolve these two processes to detect the true recombination events and correct SEs.
