Variation of the Conserved Pairs Proportion ( CPP ). The mean CPP values of the OS (1/7) are given in function of the percentage of MVs for the seven aggregation methods (complete-linkage, Ward minimum variance, single-linkage, average-linkage, mcquitty, centroid-linkage and median-linkage). 200 independent simulations have been done per rate (τ) of MVs.
