Reconciling taxonomy and phylogenetic inference: formalism and algorithms for describing discord and inferring taxonomic roots [PDF]
arXiv, 2011 Although taxonomy is often used informally to evaluate the results of phylogenetic inference and find the root of phylogenetic trees, algorithmic methods to do so are lacking. In this paper we formalize these procedures and develop algorithms to solve the relevant problems. In particular, we introduce a new algorithm that solves a "subcoloring" problem
