Kinship coefficient and genetic index of familiality
The genetic index of familality is defined as the mean kinship between all pairs of individuals in a set multiplied by 100,000. Formally, it is defined as
100,000 x 2/[n(n-1)]∑_(i=1)^(n-1)∑_(j=i+1)^n k_(ij)
where n is the number of individuals in the set and k_{ij} is the kinship coefficient between individuals i and j.
The scaling is purely for convenience of presentation.
