gif: Kinship coefficient and genetic index of familiality

Description

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 $$100,000\times \frac{2}{n(n-1)}\sum _{i=1}^{n-1}\sum _{j=i+1}^n{k}_{ij}$$ 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.

Usage
