| Abstract |
Semi-labeled trees generalize ordinary phylogenetic trees, allowing internal nodes to be labeled by higher-order taxa. Taxonomies are examples of semi-labeled trees. Suppose we are given collection [Formula: see text] of semi-labeled trees over various subsets of a set of taxa. The ancestral compatibility problem asks whether there is a semi-labeled tree that respects the clusterings and the ancestor/descendant relationships implied by the trees in [Formula: see text]. The running time and space usage of the best previous algorithm for testing ancestral compatibility depend on the degrees of the nodes in the trees in [Formula: see text]. We give a algorithm for the ancestral compatibility problem that runs in [Formula: see text] time and uses [Formula: see text] space, where [Formula: see text] is the total number of nodes and edges in the trees in [Formula: see text]. Taxonomies enable researchers to expand greatly the taxonomic coverage of their phylogenetic analyses. The running time of our method does not depend on the degrees of the nodes in the trees in [Formula: see text]. This characteristic is important when taxonomies-which can have nodes of high degree-are used. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 10 April 2017.
All research outputs
#14,339,070
of 22,961,203 outputs
Outputs from Algorithms for Molecular Biology
#111
of 264 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#173,877
of 308,429 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Algorithms for Molecular Biology
#5
of 8 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,961,203 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 35th percentile – i.e., 35% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 264 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.1. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 52% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 308,429 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 40th percentile – i.e., 40% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 8 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than 3 of them.
