Lines of code where dbga is estimating the guide-tree.

xingjianleng commented 2 years ago

In the latest implementation, the DistanceMatrix object from cogent3 was used in de Bruijn MSA. The DistanceMatrix was one input parameter for the alignment() function. The guide tree was constructed at the beginning of alignment.

The current implementation for estimating the DistanceMatrix doesn't have any mathematical/biological meaning, especially how k_estimated is calculated. The implementation is at https://github.com/xingjianleng/DBGA/blob/0da8dca853a98168dd858ad826b126827ee322b9/src/dbga/utils.py#L416-L437
