Table 3 Accuracy of reAdmix ancestry reconstruction for different mixture scenarios from European and Native American populations.

Scenario	Condition	Correct position(%)	At least one correctly predicted origin (%)	Correct populations (%)	Average distance to correct population, km
50 × 50	none	98	89	30	329
	1 pop.	99	87	36	2
	equal weights	99	88	36	135
50 × 25 × 25	none	86	81	18	1390
	1 pop.	94	72	4	362
25 × 25 × 25 × 25	none	86	85	0	1484
	1 pop.	90	71	0	759

Percentage of mixed ancestral population is given in the "Scenario" column. "Correct position" is defined as a prediction within 320 km of reported location. "Correct populations" is defined as a geographically correct prediction where the method correctly discriminated between neighboring populations.
