Extended Data Fig. 6: Unidentifiability between population sizes and growth rates.
From: A likelihood-based framework for demographic inference from genealogical trees

The log-likelihood of the gLike model on the population sizes (at time of admixture) and growth rates of the Latinos and Native Hawaiians in a grid of possible parameters. All other parameters were fixed at their estimates shown in Fig. 6. This result indicates the potential bias when estimating entangled parameters, because the hill-climbing optimization could stop anywhere along the red curve, depending on the initial values.
