“…We compared AncestralClust to five other state-of-the-art clustering methods: UCLUST (Edgar, 2010), meshclust2 (James and Girgis, 2018), DNACLUST (Ghodsi et al, 2011), CD-HIT (Fu et al, 2012), and SpClust (Matar et al, 2019). We used a variety of measurements to assess the accuracy and evennness of the clustering.…”
