Background: With the rapid growth of massively parallel sequencing technologies, still more laboratories are utilizing sequenced DNA fragments for genomic analyses. Interpretation of sequencing data is, however, strongly dependent on…

A merge tree is a topological descriptor of a real-valued function. Merge trees are used in visualization and topological data analysis, either directly or as a means to another end: computing a 0-dimensional persistence diagram,…
