Site Frequency Spectrum

The Site Frequency Spectrum is a statistical summary in population genetics that categorizes polymorphic sites by the frequency distribution of derived alleles across a sample of DNA sequences, distinguishing it from other genetic summaries by its focus on the count of alleles at each frequency level to infer demographic history and selection.
