MostContradictedFreq() counts the occurrences of the single split that most frequently contradicts each split in tree.

This function was written during a code sprint: its documentation and test cases have not yet been carefully scrutinized, and its implementation may change without notice. Please alert the maintainer to any issues you encounter.

Usage

MostContradictedFreq(tree, forest)

Arguments

tree

A tree of class phylo.

forest

a list of trees of class phylo, or a multiPhylo object; or a Splits object.

Value

MostContradictedFreq() returns, for each split in tree, the number of times that its most common contradictory split occurs in forest.

Details

Goloboff et al. (2003) propose comparing the frequency of a split in a resampled population with the frequency of the most common contradictory split. This measure contributes to the "groups present / contradicted" score.
