`mobster` is a package that implements a model-based approach for _subclonal deconvolution_ of cancer genome sequencing data ([Caravagna et al; PMID: 32879509](https://www.nature.com/articles/s41588-020-0675-5#:~:text=Subclonal%20reconstruction%20methods%20based%20on,and%20infer%20their%20evolutionary%20history.&text=We%20present%20a%20novel%20approach,learning%20with%20theoretical%20population%20genetics.)).
The package integrates evolutionary theory (i.e., population) and Machine-Learning to analyze (e.g., whole-genome) bulk data from cancer samples. This analysis relates to clustering; we approach it via a maximum-likelihood formulation of Dirichlet mixture models, and use bootstrap routines to assess the confidence of the parameters. The package implements S3 objects to visualize the data and the fits.
