Comparison of clustering results across (experimental) reference and (synthetic) simulated data. a Boxplot of F1 scores across all type k references, simulation and clustering methods. b Boxplot of difference ($\mathrm{\Delta }$) in F1 scores obtained from reference and simulated data. c Heatmap of clustering method (columns) rankings across datasets (rows), stratified by simulator (panels). d Heatmap of Spearman’s rank correlation ($\rho$) between F1 scores across datasets and clustering methods
