The future data exchange standard is here!

NeXML is an exchange standard for representing phyloinformatic data — inspired by the commonly used NEXUS format, but more robust and easier to process.

Description

This module defines abstract superclasses for tree components. Nexml defines trees as a sequence of nodes, zero or one root edge and a sequence of edges. There are different concrete instances of edges, namely those with lengths formatted as integers, and lengths formatted as floating point numbers.

In addition, there are different types of trees: those where nodes have an in-degree of 1 - true trees - and those with in-degree that can exceed 1 - networks.

Complex types

AbstractEdge [abstract]

Description

The AbstractEdge superclass is what concrete edges inherit from by restriction. It represents an edge element much like that of GraphML, i.e. an element that connects node elements.

Inheritance

AbstractEdge extends IDTagged. In turn, this type is inherited from by NetworkFloatEdge, NetworkIntEdge, TreeFloatEdge, TreeIntEdge,

AbstractNetwork [abstract]

Description

The AbstractNetwork superclass is what a concrete network inherits from.

Inheritance

AbstractNetwork extends IDTagged. In turn, this type is inherited from by FloatNetwork, IntNetwork,

AbstractNode [abstract]

Description

The AbstractNode superclass is what concrete nodes inherit from by restriction. It represents a node element much like that of GraphML, i.e. an element that is connected into a tree by edge elements.

Inheritance

AbstractNode extends OptionalTaxonLinked. In turn, this type is inherited from by NetworkNode, TreeNode,

  </xs:complexType>

AbstractRootEdge [abstract]

Description

The AbstractRootEdge complex type is a superclass for the edge that leads into a root, i.e. an edge with only a target attribute, but no source attribute. This type of edge is used for coalescent trees, where the initial lineage has a certain length before things start splitting up.

Inheritance

AbstractRootEdge extends IDTagged. In turn, this type is inherited from by TreeFloatRootEdge, TreeIntRootEdge,

The AbstractTree superclass is what a concrete tree inherits from.
