alignment-distances - Compute distances between alignments.

alignment-distances analysis alignments-file1 [alignments-file2 ...]

Compute distances between alignments.

Produce help message
Number of alignment samples to skip.
Maximum number of alignments to analyze.
Output more log messages on stderr.
Specify the alphabet: DNA, RNA, Amino-Acids, Amino-Acids+stop, Triplets, Codons, or Codons+stop.

(=splits:splits2:nonrecall:inaccuracy) Colon-separated list of distances.
Analysis: score, AxA, NxN, compare, median, distances
Confidence interval size.
Show mean and standard deviation
Show median and confidence interval
Show minimum and maximum distances

Compute distances from true.fasta to each in As.fasta:

% alignment-distances score true.fasta As.fasta
    

Compute distance matrix between all pairs of alignments in all files:

% alignment-distances AxA file1.fasta ... fileN.fasta
    

Compute all NxN pairwise alignment accuracies, averaged over As:

% alignment-distances NxN true.fasta As.fasta
    

Find alignment with smallest average distance to other alignments:

% alignment-distances median As.fasta A.fasta
    

Compare the distances with-in and between the two groups:

% alignment-distances compare A-dist1.fasta A-dist2.fasta
    

Report distribution of average distance to other alignments:

% alignment-distances distances As.fasta A.fasta
