**Dataset formats**

The input dataset is in gd_ped_ format.
The output dataset is a composite dataset containing a graph and text.
(`Dataset missing?`_)

.. _gd_ped: ./static/formatHelp.html#gd_ped
.. _Dataset missing?: ./static/formatHelp.html

-----

**What it does**

The user selects a gd_ped dataset generated by the Prepare Input tool,
and specifies a number, K, of ancestral
populations.  The tool estimates the proportion of each individual's ancestry
coming from each ancestral population.  The proportions are shown both as
numbers and graphically.
