Orogen: Advanced relationship predictions for genetic genealogy

Orogen advances the science of relationship prediction by using Ped-sim, which improves upon previous models by incorporating crossover interference and sex-specific genetic maps. The Orogen tool provides accurate relationship predictions for a wide range of relationship types. It properly differentiates between close relatives at 23andMe, which is a newly available functionality for standalone tools. It provides new granularity of close relationships by showing the differences between paternal and maternal sides and in-group relationship types.
