Classification: CPC G | IPC G

Claim 0:
1. A computer-implemented method comprising
receiving, by one or more processors and by way of a graphical user interface, a selection of at least one of a first individual and a second individual, wherein the selection is made either through a menu or text entry;
retrieving, by the one or more processors and from a database, representations of diploid sequences of the first individual and the second individual, wherein the diploid sequences include values for markers;
comparing, by the one or more processors, the representations of diploid sequences of the first individual and the second individual using windows of a fixed size;
identifying, by the one or more processors as identical segments, the windows for which the values of markers on both of the diploid sequences are identical for the first individual and the second individual;
identifying, by the one or more processors as half-identical segments, the windows for which the values of markers on only one of the diploid sequences are identical for the first individual and the second individual;
identifying, by the one or more processors as non-identical segments, the windows for which the markers on neither of the diploid sequences are identical for the first individual and the second individual; and
providing for display, by the one or more processors and on the graphical user interface, a visual indication of the diploid sequences wherein: the diploid sequences are displayed in order of their numbering, a first color, shading, or fill pattern is used to depict locations of the identical segments, a second color, shading, or fill pattern is used to depict locations of the half-identical segments, and a third color, shading, or fill pattern is used to depict the non-identical segments.
