I'm experimenting again with modern populations.
What reference populations did you use? I’m still trying to figure out which ones work best for modern samples, so far my results have been a bit inconsistent.
Admixture modeled some ANFs and a Greek EEF:

Edit: Had to fix the screenshots.
I've produced successful models using Mesolithic/Neolithic sources like EHG,AHG,WHG, Natufian etc. And I'm still experimenting, but so far when I use the Karelia EHG the model fails. The model works with Veretye EHG though. And this latest model is with a slight adjustment to the references used in the previous runs.

This modern one is the closest. I don't know how accurate these are due to no Irish in the samples. I think Norway.HO is the best to use because there are more samples. Also Norway.HG is too close to me and seems too Isles shifted. With the selection of populations there is not a lot of others I can use. All other combinations come out FALSE.
https://i.postimg.cc/tCHZnNMt/Screen...-20-111350.png
I tried English with Spanish but this is an example of a FALSE model for me.
https://i.postimg.cc/xjvPpRBq/Screen...-20-133906.png
Here is my fst list with mostly European populations. I think the Norwegian.HG and also the Polish one might be outliers (both are only 1 sample). So I think Norway.HO is more accurate for distance and to model with.

I'm doing some ancient models
I want to see what my medieval mix is so I'm going with this. I know I'm a sort of Gaelic/Scandinavian mix from G25. Although I rationalise this as having high Steppe because I think G25 and also qpAdm is inflating Scandinavian. Is there any samples that I could use to resolve this?
This model was accepted.
https://i.postimg.cc/vHdjh3qq/Screen...-20-221011.png
With Anglo-Saxon it was rejected.
https://i.postimg.cc/g22gt5vD/Screen...-20-224317.png
I'll experiment further with models. There is a lack of Irish ancient samples and no modern day Irish reference so I feel a bit frustrated about that. I wish there was more Gaelic samples. I'll see if there are Picts and if they would be more suitable.
I'll look at some bronze age models over the coming week.
This one is working for me. Scotland_Viking is just a Gael so this appears good. More realistic as well. Irish are mostly Gael with a little bit of Germanic.
https://i.postimg.cc/0ytKZXf7/Screen...-20-231450.png
I'm not satisfied with the standard errors that I get. I might be able to experiment with different references to fix it. I noticed Drb was able to model with two or more NW Euros and get decent standard errors. He said it involved using related Iron Age and Bronze Age populations in the references. I'm not sure if he kept the older West Eurasian populations in his references though such as AHG (Pinarbasi), EHGs etc.
Attachment 142812
Edit: This one isn't too terrible for SEs but still higher than I'd like. Especially since the Gallo-Roman admixture isn't small. I hear that a higher standard error is more excusable for smaller admixture percentages like 5-10% due to more uncertainty, because it's small.
Yes, that plus or minus X% to the left of the admix bar is the standard error. The interface doesn’t show it but there is another metric with these models and that is Z-Scores. The Z-score is your admixture divided by the standard error. Some hobbyists think that a Z-score of less than 3 means you don’t have that source. Through email correspondence with Andrei I don’t think that’s correct. And the reason I think that is because there have been published qpAdm admixture models in academic papers with Z scores less than 3. Btw I learned this stuff with the help of AndreiDNA, plus looking around myself and discussions on another forum.
This model would satisfy that hobbyist that held the belief that Z-Scores of 3 or better should only be considered:
Attachment 142815
My 20.55% admixture of EGY TIP divided by the standard error of 6.32% would equal a Z score of ~3.25.
It seems the general approach in peer-reviewed work is p-value + archaeological plausibility* > strict Z cutoff.
*I think that this can be interpreted with nuance as well

For this model, I used these 30 references:

Thanks, mate, any idea why the Human Origins dataset is so limited, there's only like two Germanic populations to choose from, it seems a bit restrictive, which could affect reliability. I’ve been getting some weird FST results, when using Scottish as the target, French, Spanish and Hungry are showing closer distances than Orcadian.
I wonder where the russian.ho samples are from. Is it just the western part of Russia?
This is the best for me so far. I'm going by the percentage result on the left. Could someone let me know? I'm just trying to understand what is a good result in these models.

I did a number of models with this IA British individual 6DT3. I looked up what studies have been done on him, and it appears that he has about 25% Iron Age Scandinavian ancestry:
https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-024-08275-2?utm
"Twigstats substantially improves models of admixture between ancestries from Iron Age Britain and northern Europe in early medieval England9, halving standard errors from 9% with SNPs to 4% when using time stratification (point estimates 80% and 79% Iron Age Britain-related ancestry, respectively). We used this improved resolution to demonstrate that an earlier Roman individual (6DT3) dating to approximately second to fourth century ce from the purported gladiator or military cemetery at Driffield Terrace in York (Roman Eboracum), England60, who was previously identified as an ancestry outlier61,62, specifically carried approximately 25% EIA Scandinavian Peninsula-related ancestry (Fig. 2c). This documents that people with Scandinavian-related ancestry already were in Britain before the fifth century ce, after which there was a substantial influx associated with Anglo-Saxon migrations9. Although it is uncertain whether this individual was a gladiator or soldier, individuals and groups from northern Europe are indeed recorded in Roman sources both as soldiers and as enslaved gladiators63,64."

Comparison of me and Ukrainian.HO samples
I am aware of the negative p-value, but this is meant to illustrate the difference in drifts. It is clearly visible how the Ukrainian sample is heading southeast while I am heading west. Unless I did something wrong? I would also like to finally improve my margins, as this problem only arises when modeling my kit.
