In annenna4/culturechange:

Description Usage Arguments Details Author(s)

Generates theoretical samples at times tj, j=2,...,nSamples under a specific process of cultural transmission.

1	generate_cultural_change<-function(iniPop, u, v, b, mutationRate, timePoints, nType, sampleSize, nSamples, n_step_for_sample)

`iniPop`	vector containing the relative population-level frequencies of the cultural variant types at t1
`u`	number of variants to be removed in every time step
`v`	number of variants to be added in every time step
`b`	strength of frequency-dependent selection
`mutationRate`	mutation rate per transmission event
`timePoints`	vector specifying the time points tj, j=1,...,nSamples
`nType`	number of variant types in the population at t1
`sampleSize`	vector of sample sizes at time points tj, j=1,...,nSamples
`nSamples`	number of observed samples
`n_step_for_sample`	number of (theoretical) populations (at time steps t(j-n_step_for_sample+1),...,tj) from which the samples at tj are evenly drawn

This functions generates the theoretical sample-level frequencies of all variant types present in t1 (and an additional type that contains variants not obserevd in the sample at t1) at times tj, j=2,...,nSamples under the cultural transmission process defined in function generate_transmissionProb.
