mixsep: DNA mixture separation

In mixsep: Forensic Genetics DNA Mixture Separation

Description

Separates DNA mixtures using the algorithm and statistical model described in Tvedebrink et al. (2010), see references. The mixsep()-function invokes a GUI written in the tcl/tk-language. The GUI makes it easy to load data files, analyse the mixture with fixed profiles and interpret the results. Specialised plotting functions are made available for visual inspection of the data and proposed DNA profiles.
