Occurrence distributions of elongation versus planarity, for SIM A. Top row panels: (a) HJ method, (b) NB method, and (c) AV method. Bottom row panels: (d) ℰ/ℰ^HJ versus 𝒫/𝒫^HJ, (e) ℰ/ℰ^NB versus 𝒫/𝒫^NB, and (f) ℰ/ℰ^AV versus 𝒫/𝒫^AV, thus the comparison between our local methods and our overall nonlocal reference values ℰ and 𝒫. The x and y ranges in panels d–f have been adapted in order to produce a better visualization. In doing so, some cases have been excluded including the following: 21 out of the total 1043 current structures (CSs) examined in panel d, 23 out of 1043 in panel e, and two out of 1043 in panel f.
