  1. "Objf" denotes the objective function for the squared difference metric (see Eq. 3) and hierarchical clustering (using the Euclidean metric), with and without optimal leaf ordering. "HC" corresponds to hierarchical clustering [4] and "HC (Opt. Order)" corresponds to the optimal leaf ordering of hierarchical clustering using TreeArrange [41].
