  "summary": "Dissimilarity measures play a critical role in phylogenetics. They help quantify the accuracy of inferences when the ground truth is known, allow comparisons of inferences obtained using different methods, and provide a tool for summarizing sets of phylogenies. A wide array of dissimilarity measures has been introduced for phylogenetic trees over the past half-century, and they vary in their…",
