Description

Results of tests exploring the influence of tree shape on reconstructed tree distances.

Format

A list of length 25. Each entry of the list is named according to the abbreviation of the corresponding method (see 'Methods tested' below).

Each entry is itself a list of ten elements. Each element contains a numeric vector listing the distances between each pair of trees with shape x and shape y, where:

x = 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 4 and y = 1, 2, 3, 4, 2, 3, 4, 3, 4, 4.

As trees are not compared with themselves (to avoid zero distances), elements where x = y contain 4 950 distances, whereas other elements contain 5 050 distances.

Details

For each of the four binary unrooted tree shapes on eight leaves, I labelled leaves at random until I had generated 100 distinct trees.

I measured the distance from each tree to each of the other 399 trees.

For analysis of this data, see the accompanying vignette.
