Each row represents actual groups whereas the columns represent predicted groups. Groups identified through the TCS analysis are shown in parentheses. The reduction in classification error (57.6%) shows the accuracy of the DFA compared to random classification. See Protocol S1 for further information concerning population designations and statistical analyses.
