What you can do:
A phylogenetic tree capturing tool.
Highlights:
- TreeSnatcher is a GUI-driven JAVA application for the semi-automatic recognition of multifurcating phylogenetic trees in pixel images.
- The program accepts an image file as input and analyzes the topology and the metrics of a tree depicted.
- The analysis is carried out in a multiple-stage process using algorithms from image analysis.
- In the end, TreeSnatcher produces a Newick tree code that represents the tree structure optionally including branch lengths.
- TreeSnatcher can process trees with 100 leaves or more in a few seconds.
Keywords:
- Pattern Recognition
- Phylogeny
