🧬 Dynamic Pedigree Matrix - Technical Implementation

Core Algorithm

The pedigree matrix uses a binary path algorithm for mathematical ancestor positioning:

# Binary path navigation for ancestors
def get_ancestor_at_position(pedigree_data, generation, position):
    """Navigate to specific ancestor using binary path"""
    current = pedigree_data
    
    # Convert position to binary path
    for level in range(generation):
        if current is None:
            return None
        
        # Extract bit for current level
        bit = (position >> (generation - 1 - level)) & 1
        
        # Navigate: 0 = sire, 1 = dam
        if bit == 0:
            current = current.get('sire')
        else:
            current = current.get('dam')
    
    return current

Inbreeding Analysis System

The COI (Coefficient of Inbreeding) analysis provides advanced genealogical insights:

Common Ancestor Detection

def detect_pedigree_inbreeding(dog, generations=4):
    """Detect common ancestors and calculate inbreeding patterns"""
    ancestor_paths = {}
    
    def traverse_pedigree(current_dog, path, level):
        if level > generations or not current_dog:
            return
            
        ancestor_id = current_dog.id
        if ancestor_id not in ancestor_paths:
            ancestor_paths[ancestor_id] = {'sire_paths': 0, 'dam_paths': 0}
            
        # Track path type (sire/dam lineage)
        path_type = 'sire_paths' if 's' in path else 'dam_paths'
        ancestor_paths[ancestor_id][path_type] += 1

Visual Highlighting System

// Dynamic tooltip and color assignment
function updatePedigreeTable(data) {
    const inbreedingData = data.inbreeding_data || {};
    
    // Apply highlighting to common ancestors
    Object.keys(inbreedingData).forEach(ancestorId => {
        const inbredInfo = inbreedingData[ancestorId];
        const element = document.querySelector(`[data-dog-id="${ancestorId}"]`);
        
        if (element) {
            element.style.backgroundColor = inbredInfo.color;
            element.setAttribute('data-coi', inbredInfo.count);
            element.classList.add('common-ancestor');
        }
    });
}

API Integration

@router.get("/api/dogs/{dog_id}/pedigree/{generations}")
async def get_dog_pedigree_api(dog_id: int, generations: int):
    """Enhanced API with inbreeding analysis"""
    
    # Detect inbreeding patterns
    inbreeding_data = detect_pedigree_inbreeding(pedigree_dog, generations)
    
    # Add COI data to ancestor matrix
    ancestor_matrix_with_coi = add_coi_data_to_matrix(ancestor_matrix, db)
    
    return {
        "dog": dog_dict,
        "ancestor_matrix": ancestor_matrix_with_coi,
        "inbreeding_data": inbreeding_data,  # Common ancestors with highlighting
        "pedigree_completeness": pedigree_completeness
    }
# Convert position to binary path
for level in range(generation):
    if current is None:
        return None
    
    # Extract bit for current level
    bit = (position >> (generation - 1 - level)) & 1
    
    # Navigate: 0 = sire, 1 = dam
    if bit == 0:
        current = current.get('sire')
    else:
        current = current.get('dam')

return current

### Key Features
- **Recursive Data Loading**: Overcomes MariaDB's 61-table JOIN limit
- **Pre-computed Matrix**: Efficient template access with `ancestor_matrix.get(gen, {}).get(cell_index, None)`
- **Dynamic Generation**: For-loop based matrix supporting 1-9 generations
- **Binary Positioning**: Mathematical approach to ancestor placement
- **Inbreeding Detection**: Real-time common ancestor analysis
- **Visual Highlighting**: Color-coded pedigree display with interactive tooltips
- **COI Calculations**: Individual and pedigree-wide coefficient analysis

### Frontend Integration
The system provides seamless integration between backend analysis and frontend visualization:

```css
/* CSS for inbreeding highlighting */
.common-ancestor {
    border: 2px solid #333;
    position: relative;
}

.common-ancestor::after {
    content: "Common ancestor - appears " attr(data-coi) " times";
    position: absolute;
    background: rgba(0,0,0,0.8);
    color: white;
    padding: 5px;
    border-radius: 3px;
    top: -30px;
    left: 50%;
    transform: translateX(-50%);
    white-space: nowrap;
    z-index: 1000;
    opacity: 0;
    transition: opacity 0.3s;
}

.common-ancestor:hover::after {
    opacity: 1;
}

Database Optimization

The system avoids complex JOINs by loading ancestors recursively:

def get_parents_recursively(db, dog_id, generation=0, max_generation=9):
    """Load dog parents recursively to avoid JOIN limits"""
    if generation > max_generation or dog_id is None:
        return None
        
    dog = db.query(Dog).filter(Dog.id == dog_id).first()
    if not dog:
        return None
    
    return {
        'dog': dog,
        'sire': get_parents_recursively(db, dog.sire_id, generation + 1, max_generation),
        'dam': get_parents_recursively(db, dog.dam_id, generation + 1, max_generation)
    }

🔄 Data Import System

Estonian Kennel Union Import

Location: data_import/importers/estonia/

Run import:

cd data_import/importers/estonia
python estonia_import.py

Last import results (May 2025):

  • 0 errors during import
  • Estonian URLs preserved for all records

Performance & Limitations

COI Analysis Performance:

  • Supports up to 9 generations of analysis
  • Optimized for real-time highlighting in browser
  • Typical analysis time: <200ms for 4-generation COI
  • Database queries optimized with recursive loading

System Limitations:

  • MariaDB JOIN limit (61 tables) overcome with recursive approach
  • Memory usage increases exponentially with generation depth
  • Recommended maximum: 6 generations for complex pedigrees
  • Large datasets may require query optimization

📊 Database Schema

Core Tables

dogs: Main dog records with pedigree relationships

  • sire_id / dam_id: Parent relationship fields for recursive navigation

COI Highlighting Testing

To test the inbreeding analysis and highlighting system:

  1. Access test dog: Visit http://localhost:8007/dogs/4888 (ALPHADIRATO EXACT COPY)
  2. Check API endpoint: http://localhost:8007/api/dogs/4888/pedigree/4
  3. Verify highlighting: Look for colored ancestors in pedigree matrix
  4. Test tooltips: Hover over highlighted ancestors to see common ancestor information

Expected behavior:

  • Common ancestors should be highlighted with distinct colors
  • Tooltips should display "Common ancestor - appears X times"
  • API should return inbreeding_data with 14+ common ancestors
  • Different colors indicate different common ancestor lineages

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How accurate are the COI calculations? A: The system detects common ancestors across the specified generation range and highlights them visually. For precise Wright's coefficient calculations, future versions will include mathematical COI percentages.

Q: Why are some ancestors not highlighted? A: Only ancestors that appear multiple times in the pedigree (common ancestors) are highlighted. Unique ancestors don't contribute to inbreeding and remain unhighlighted.

Q: Can I export pedigrees with COI data? A: PDF export functionality is planned for future development. Currently, visual analysis is available through the web interface.

Q: How many generations should I analyze? A: For most breeding decisions, 4-5 generations provide sufficient COI analysis. Higher generation counts (6+) may impact performance with complex pedigrees.
