Features
- Document that the
zarr-vcf
dataset can be either a path or an in-memory zarr group. (feature introduced in {pr}966
, documented in {pr}974
, {user}hyanwong
)
Fixes
- Properly account for "N" as an unknown ancestral state, and ban "" from being
set as an ancestral state ({pr}
963
, {user}hyanwong
)
2nd Alpha release of tsinfer 0.4.0
Features
- Add batch ancestor and sample matching APIs for splitting work across many independent jobs.

Alpha release of tsinfer 0.4.0
Features
tsinfer
now supports inferring data from anvcf-zarr
dataset. This allows users to infer from VCFs via the optimised and parallel VCF parsing inbio2zarr
.- The
VariantData
class can be used to load the vcf-data and be used for inference. vcf-zarr
sample_ids
are inserted into individual metadata asvariant_data_sample_id
if this key does not already exist.
Breaking Changes
- Remove the
uuid
field from SampleData. SampleData equality is now purely based on data. ({pr}748
, {user}benjeffery
)
Performance improvements
-
Reduce memory usage when running
match_samples
against large cohorts containing sequences with substantial amounts of error. ({pr}761
, {user}jeromekelleher
) -
truncate_ancestors
no longer requires loading all the ancestors into RAM. ({pr}811
, {user}benjeffery
) -
Reduce memory requirements of the
generate_ancestors
function by providing thegenotype_encoding
({pr}809
) andmmap_temp_dir
({pr}808
) options ({user}jeromekelleher
). -
Increase parallelisation of
match_ancestors
by generating parallel groups from their implied dependency graph. ({pr}828
, {issue}147
, {user}benjeffery
)
Fixes
- Bug fix release for numpy 2 ({issue}
937
).
Breaking Changes
- A permissive json schema is now set on node table metadata
({issue}
416
{pr}931
, {user}hyanwong
).
Features
tsinfer
now supports numpy2 (and 1.XX) and python 3.12.
Breaking Changes
- tsinfer now requires Python 3.9 or later
- Bug fix release for a bad dependency specification.
Features
-
When calling
sample_data.add_site()
the ancestral state does not need to be the first allele (index 0): alternatively, an ancestral allele index can be given (and ifMISSING_DATA
, the ancestral state will be imputed). ({pr}718
, {issue}686
{user}hyanwong
) -
The CLI interface now allows recombination rate (or rate maps) and mismatch ratios to be specified ({pr}
731
, {issue}435
{user}hyanwong
) -
The calls to match-ancestors and match-samples via the CLI are now logged in the provenance entries of the output tree sequence ({pr}
732
and741
, {issue}730
{user}hyanwong
) -
The CLI interface allows
--no-post-process
to be specified (for details of post- processing, see "Breaking changes" below) ({pr}727
, {issue}721
{user}hyanwong
) -
matching routines warn if no inference sites ({pr}
685
, {issue}683
{user}hyanwong
)
Fixes
-
sample_data.subset()
now accepts a sequence_length ({pr}681
, {user}hyanwong
) -
verify
no longer raises error when comparing a genotype to missingness. ({pr}716
, {issue}625
, {user}benjeffery
)
Breaking changes:
-
The
simplify
parameter is now deprecated in favour ofpost_process
, which prior to simplification, removes the "virtual-root-like" ancestor (inserted by tsinfer to aid the matching process) then splits the ultimate ancestor into separate pieces. If splitting is not required, thepost_process
step can also be called as a separate function with the parametersplit_ultimate=False
({pr}687
, {pr}750
, {issue}673
, {user}hyanwong
) -
Post-processing by default erases tree topology that exists before the first site and one unit after the last site, to avoid extrapolating into regions with no data. This can be disabled by calling
post_process
step as a separate function with the parametererase_flanks=False
({pr}720
, {issue}483
, {user}hyanwong
) -
Inference now sets time_units on both ancestor and final tree sequences to tskit.TIME_UNITS_UNCALIBRATED, stopping accidental use of branch length calculations on the ts. ({pr}
680
, {user}hyanwong
)
Features
- Added
ancestor(id)
toAncestorData
class. ({pr}570
, {issue}569
, {user}hyanwong
)
Fixes
- Mark zarr 2.11.0, 2.11.1 and 2.11.2 as incompatible due to
zarr-python
bugs #965 and #967. ({issue}643
, {pr}657
, {user}benjeffery
)
Bugfixes:
- Mutations at non-inference sites are now guaranteed to be fully parsimonious.
Previous versions required a mutation above the root when the input ancestral state
disagreed with the ancestral state produced by the parsimony algorithm. Now fixed by
using the new map_mutations code from tskit 0.3.7 ({pr}
557
, {user}hyanwong
)
New Features:
Breaking changes:
-
Oldest nodes in a standard inferred tree sequence are no longer set to frequencies ~2 and ~3 (i.e. 2 or 3 times as old as all the other nodes), but are spaced above the others by the mean time between unique ancestor ages ({pr}
485
, {user}hyanwong
) -
The
tsinfer.SampleData.from_tree_sequence()
function now defaults to settinguse_sites_time
anduse_individuals_time
toFalse
rather thanTrue
({pr}599
, {user}hyanwong
)
Bugfix release
Bugfixes:
-
Fix a bug in the core LS matching algorithm in which the rate of recombination was being incorrectly computed ({issue}
493
, {pr}514
, {user}jeromekelleher
, {user}hyanwong
). -
tsinfer.verify()
no longer requires that non-ancestral alleles in a SampleData and Tree Sequence file are in the same order ({issue}490
, {pr}492
, {user}hyanwong
).
New Features:
- Inferred ancestral haplotypes may be truncated via
AncestorData.truncate_ancestors()
to improve performance when inferring large datasets ({issue}276
, {pr}467
, {user}awohns
).
Breaking changes:
- tsinfer now requires Python 3.7
Major feature release, including some incompatible file format and API updates.
New features:
-
Mismatch and recombination parameters can now be specified via the recombination_rate and mismatch_ratio arguments in the Python API.
-
Missing data can be accomodated in SampleData using the tskit.MISSING_DATA value in input genotypes. Missing data will be imputed in the output tree sequence.
-
Metadata schemas for population, individual, site and tree sequence metadata can now we be specified in the SampleData format. These will be included in the final tree sequence and allow for automatic decoding of JSON metadata.
-
Map non-inference sites onto the tree by using the tskit
map_mutations
parsimony method. This allows us to support sites with > 2 alleles. -
Historical (non-contemporaneous) samples can now be accommodated in inference, assuming that the true dates of ancestors have been set, by using the concept of "proxy samples". This is done via the new function
AncestorData.insert_proxy_samples()
, then setting the new parameterforce_sample_times=True
when matching samples. -
The default tree sequence returned after inference when
simplify=True
retains unary nodes (i.e. simplify is done withkeep_unary=True
.
Breaking changes:
-
The ancestors tree sequence now contains the real alleles and not 0/1 values as before.
-
Times for undated sites now use frequencies (0..1), not as counts (1..num_samples), and are now stored as
tskit.UNKNOWN_TIME
, then calculated on the fly in the variants() iterator. -
The SampleData file no longer accepts the
inference
argument to add_site. This functionality has been replaced by theexclude_positions
argument to theinfer
andgenerate_ancestors
functions. -
The SampleData format is now at version 5, and older versions cannot be read. Users should rerun their data ingest pipelines.
-
Users can specify variant ages, via
sample_data.add_sites(... , time=user_time)
. If notNone
, this overrides the default time position of an ancestor, otherwise ancestors are ordered in time by using the frequency of the derived variant (#143). -
Change "age" to "time" to match tskit/msprime notation, and to avoid confusion with the age since birth of an individual (#149). Together with the 2 changes below, this addition bumped the file format to 3.0.
-
Add the ability to record user-specified times for individuals, and therefore the samples contained in them (currently ignored during inference). Times are added using
sample_data.add_individual(... , time=user_time)
(#190). -
Change
tsinfer.UNKNOWN_ALLELE
totskit.MISSING_DATA
for marking unknown regions of ancestral haplotypes (#188) . This also involves changing the allele storage to a signed int fromnp.uint8
which matches the tskit v0.2 format for allele storage (see tskit-dev/tskit#144).
Bugfixes:
- Individuals and populations in the SampleData file are kept in the returned tree
sequence, even if they are not referenced by any sample. The individual and population
ids are therefore guaranteed to stay the same between the sample data file and the
inferred tree sequence. ({pr}
348
)
Bugfix release.
- Fix issue caused by upstream changes in numcodecs (#136).
Release corresponding to code used in the preprint.
Minor update to take advantage of msprime 0.6.0's Population and Individual objects and fix various bugs.
Breaking changes:
-
Bumped SampleData file format version to 1.0 because of the addition of individuals and populations. Older SampleData files will not be readable and must be regenerated.
-
Changed the order of the
alleles
andgenotypes
arguments to SampleData.add_site.
New features:
-
Sample and individual metadata now handled correctly.
-
Added --no-simplify option to CLI and simplify=True option to infer function.
-
Better handling of missing files (raises correct exceptions).
-
tsinfer list now presents basic information for .trees files.
Bug fixes:
-
Degenerate examples with zero inference sites are now rooted (#44)
-
Simplify=False results in tree sequence with correct sample nodes.
