Fig. 7

Performance comparison of the best match inference methods for simulated data (2000 scenarios). Top panel: Median (solid) and 10th percentile (dashed) of recall and precision as a function of noise level s (standard deviation of the distribution from which perturbations were drawn, see “Simulation of measurement noise” section). Lower panel: Boxplots of F-measure for different levels of noise superimposed on the additive distance; \(s=0\) refers to perfect data. Orange: \(\epsilon\) method, turquoise: explicit construction of the unrooted tree \(\overline{T}\) and midpoint rooting, green: inference of quartets with outgroups chosen in another branch of the root
