Abstract

Hierarchical structures are common in modern applications. Tree integration is one of the tools for them that is not fully researched. We define a complex tree to model other common hierarchical structures. Complex tree integration is parametrized by specific integration criteria. Sub-tree agreement is a group of criteria that describes the relation of sub-tree number and structure between input trees and the integrated tree. This paper provides several definitions of sub-tree agreement, the most important properties of these criteria, and examples of algorithms based on sub-tree agreement.
