    This study introduces a model for analyzing ascending genealogies, offering tools to compute coefficients of consanguinity and completeness. The model is operationalized for micro-computers, with examples from Saint Barthelemy, Guadeloupe.

    Area of Science:

    • Population genetics
    • Computational biology
    • Social sciences

    Background:

    • Ascending genealogies are crucial for understanding population structure and genetic relationships.
    • Previous models may lack computational efficiency or comprehensive analytical functions.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present a novel computational model for analyzing ascending genealogies.
    • To define and investigate functions for studying genealogical data.
    • To operationalize the model using micro-computer algorithms.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of a computational model for ascending genealogies.
    • Definition and investigation of analytical functions.
    • Implementation of algorithms for micro-computer processing.
