Figure 3

Comparison of distance measures and clustering algorithms. (a) Diametric distance combined with NJ clustering results in the highest sensitivity and the smallest percentage of lost data. (b) The effect of selected distance measures between phyletic patterns on the recovery of functionally linked pairs of genes. The criteria of functional linkages on the basis of the KEGG maps, as well as the values for mutual information are as in [28].
