The Watterson estimator is a statistical method used in population genetics to estimate the theta (\( \theta \)) parameter, which represents the population mutation rate per generation. The estimator is based on the number of polymorphic sites in a sample of DNA sequences and is particularly useful for inferring levels of genetic diversity within a population.
