Constructing (Almost) Phylogenetic Trees from Developmental Sequences Data

In this paper we present a new way of constructing almost phylogenetic trees. Almost since we reconstruct the tree, but without the timestamps. Rather than basing the tree on genetic sequence data ours is based on developmental sequence data. Using frequent episode discovery and clustering we reconstruct the consensus tree from the literature almost completely.
