In richelbilderbeek/nLTT: Calculate the NLTT Statistic

Calculates the exact difference between the lineage through time curves of tree1 & tree2 (normalized in time and for the number of lineages)

Description

Calculates the exact difference between the lineage through time curves of tree1 & tree2 (normalized in time and for the number of lineages)

Usage

nltt_diff(
  tree1,
  tree2,
  distance_method = "abs",
  ignore_stem = TRUE,
  log_transform = FALSE
)

Arguments

tree1	(phylo) First phylogenetic tree
tree2	(phylo) Second phylogenetic tree
distance_method	(string) absolute, or squared distance?
ignore_stem	logical Should the phylogeny its stem be ignored?
log_transform	(logical) Should the number of lineages be log-transformed before normalization?

Value

(scalar) normalized Lineage-Through-Time difference between tree1 & tree2
