For the initial set partitioning G0 and G1 of the initial SNP to be phased, there are edges connecting the two alleles vg0 and vg1 of any SNP locus vg with the points in both sets. The cut value is the sum of the weights of the edges connecting the allele vertex with all vertices in its complementary set. Therefore, when the two alleles belong to different sets, different cut values exist. a When vg0 ∊ G0, vg1 ∊ G1, the cut value is the sum of the weights of the red edges, which is equal to 16. b When vg1 ∊ G0, vg0 ∊ G1, the cut value is the sum of the weights of the red edges, which is equal to 5. The cut value (16) of the allocation method in (a) is greater than the cut value (5) of the allocation method in (b). Therefore, the allocation method for the two alleles vg0 and vg1 of SNP tends to be the allocation method in (b), which is vg1 ∊ G0, vg0 ∊ G1
