Jacquard: Estimation of Jacquard's Genetic Identity Coefficients

Contains procedures to estimate the nine condensed Jacquard genetic identity coefficients (Jacquard, 1974) <doi:10.1007/978-3-642-88415-3> by constrained least squares (Graffelman et al., 2024) <doi:10.1101/2024.03.25.586682> and by the method of moments (Csuros, 2014) <doi:10.1016/j.tpb.2013.11.001>. These procedures require previous estimation of the allele frequencies. Functions are supplied that estimate relationship parameters that derive from the Jacquard coefficients, such as individual inbreeding coefficients and kinship coefficients.
