Bolded values indicate which method (CACTUS or cardelino) obtained better agreement for the given subject and type of cluster that the cells assigned to the clones come from. High values of the Dunn index and the Calinski-Harabasz (CH) index, as well as low values of the root mean square standard deviation (RMSSTD) and connectivity quantify to what extent the gene expression of the cells is homogeneous inside each clone and differs between the clones
