roottoriin
Roottoriin is a term used in theoretical informatics and data science to describe a family of algorithms and representations that emphasize root-centric processing of hierarchical data. In its broad sense, roottoriin refers to methods that transform a tree, graph, or nested structure into a set of features that preserve information rooted at the origin of the structure. The central idea is to extract and summarize information as it propagates from the root to the leaves, rather than treating branches in isolation.
The methods typically operate by applying a root extraction function along paths from the root to the
Etymology and naming reflect a blend of the word root and a suffix reminiscent of action-oriented terminology
Applications and contexts range from processing parse trees in linguistics to summarizing phylogenetic trees in biology,
Further reading often emphasizes variants in aggregation, invariances to tree shape, and connections to other root-based
