upgma: UPGMA, WPGMA and sUPGMA

In phangorn: Phylogenetic Reconstruction and Analysis

UPGMA, WPGMA and sUPGMA

Description

UPGMA and WPGMA clustering. UPGMA and WPGMA are a wrapper function around hclust returning a phylo object. supgma perform serial sampled UPGMA similar to Drummond and Rodrigo (2000).

Usage

upgma(D, method = "average", ...)

wpgma(D, method = "mcquitty", ...)

supgma(D, tip.dates, trace = 0)

Arguments

D	A distance matrix.
method	The agglomeration method to be used. This should be (an unambiguous abbreviation of) one of "ward", "single", "complete", "average", "mcquitty", "median" or "centroid". The default is "average".
...	Further arguments passed to or from other methods.
tip.dates	A named vector of sampling times associated to the tips.
trace	Show output during optimization (see details).

Value

A phylogenetic tree of class phylo.
