cassiopeia.critique.robinson_foulds#
- cassiopeia.critique.robinson_foulds(tree1, tree2)[source]#
Compares two trees with Robinson-Foulds distance.
Computes the Robinsons-Foulds distance between two trees. Currently, this is the unweighted variant as most of the algorithms we use are maximum- parsimony based and do not use edge weights. This is mostly just a wrapper around the robinson_foulds method from Ete3.
- Parameters:
- tree1
CassiopeiaTree A CassiopeiaTree representing the first tree
- tree2
CassiopeiaTree A CassiopeiaTree representing the second tree
- tree1
- Return type:
- Returns:
- The Robinson-Foulds distance between the two trees and the maximum
Robinson-Foulds distance for downstream normalization
