Alright, the simulation works and fills in the gaps that exist on our understanding. Now we need the physical evidence to corroborate the hypothesis.

Neanderthals and Denovans crossbreeding to make a third breed of hominid that is now extinct but part of the human genome. Further proof of my personal theory that given the opportunity to do so, a hominid will mate with anything.

Probably true and funny!

Summary:

By combining deep learning algorithms and statistical methods, investigators 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 (approx 80,000 years ago).
