pylabeledrf 0.2.2

A package to compute the Robinson Fould distance extended to labeled topologies.

pylabeledrf

pylabeledrf is a package to compute an extension of the Robinson Foulds tree topological distance between labeled topologies, where inner nodes are labeled with speciation or duplication events.

From version 0.2 onwards, pylabeledrf includes two functions:

• computeLRF(), which computes exactly and efficiently the Labeled Robinson Foulds (LRF).
• computeELRF(), which is a heuristic to compute the edge-based Labeled Robinson Foulds (ELRF).

Installation

The package requires Python 3 (>=3.6). The easiest way to install is using pip, to install the package from PyPI.

pip install pylabeledrf

Example

from pylabeledrf.computeLRF import *
import dendropy
taxa = dendropy.TaxonNamespace()

# retrieve the test TP53 reconciled tree (from Ensembl compara 96)
p53 = dendropy.Tree.get_from_url(
    'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/DessimozLab/pylabeledrf/master/test/p53.nhx', 
    'newick', taxon_namespace=taxa)
t1 = parseEnsemblLabels(p53)

# introduce 5 random edits and compute the distance
t2 = mutateLabeledTree(t1, 5)
computeLRF(t1,t2)

# randomise the labels and compute the distance
t3 = randomLabels(t1)
computeLRF(t1,t3)
