Abstract

In this paper, we introduce two heavy caterpillar distances between rooted labeled unordered trees (trees, for short) based on the edit distance between the heavy caterpillars obtained from the heavy paths in trees. Then, we show that the heavy caterpillar distances provide the upper bound of the edit distance for trees, can be computed in quadratic time under the unit cost function and are incomparable with other variations of the edit distance.
