By combining deep learning algorithms and statistical methods, investigators from the Institute of Evolutionary Biology (IBE), the Centro Nacional de Análisis Genómico (CNAG-CRG) of the Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG) and the Institute of Genomics at the University of Tartu have identified, in the genome of Asian individuals, the footprint of a new hominid who cross bred with its ancestors tens of thousands of years ago.

In a paper published in the journal Genome Biology and Evolution, University of Houston Professor Dan Graur says that the functional portion of the human genome probably falls between 10% and 15%, with an upper limit of 25%. These figures are very different from one (about 80%) given in 2012 by the Encyclopedia of DNA Elements (ENCODE) project, but more optimistic than the 2014 estimate (8.2%) by Rands et al.
