A multi-labeled tree dissimilarity measure for comparing “clonal trees” of tumor progression

Abstract We introduce a new dissimilarity measure between a pair of “clonal trees”, each representing the progression and mutational heterogeneity of a tumor sample, constructed by the use of single cell or bulk high throughput sequencing data. In a clonal tree, each vertex represents a specific tum...
