Demographic inference from the distribution of pairwise segregating sites

DISMaL is a Python package for inferring historical demographies (specifically, population sizes, gene flow, and split times) from sequence data. It is an implementation of the Generalised isolation-with-migration (GIM) model of Costa & Wilkinson-Herbots (2021). Please cite their paper if you use DISMaL in published work:
