Table 4.1: Distances to tree A accord<strong>in</strong>g to figure 4.2 us<strong>in</strong>g “distance by unique nodes”<br />
4.3.3.1 Creat<strong>in</strong>g the decomposition str<strong>in</strong>g<br />
A decomposition str<strong>in</strong>g - <strong>in</strong> this context - is a str<strong>in</strong>g representation of a quadtree which is<br />
obta<strong>in</strong>ed by an preorder traversal of the quadtree. Let DS be the decomposition str<strong>in</strong>g of a<br />
quadtree T , which is <strong>in</strong>itialized as an empty str<strong>in</strong>g.<br />
Then, dur<strong>in</strong>g the traversal, for each node a ’1’, ’2’, ’3’ or ’4’ is appended to the str<strong>in</strong>g, if<br />
the first, the second, the third or the fourth child node is further subdivided, which means<br />
it conta<strong>in</strong>s more child nodes. Additionally an ’U’ is appended to the str<strong>in</strong>g if there are no<br />
more subdivisions <strong>in</strong> the child nodes and the traversal goes back one level towards the root.<br />
Figure 4.3 shows an example quadtree which results <strong>in</strong> the decomposition str<strong>in</strong>g<br />

where the number<strong>in</strong>g from equation (4.33) is used. Us<strong>in</strong>g this procedure the decomposition<br />
str<strong>in</strong>gs DS 1 and DS 2 for two given quadtrees T 1 and T 2 are created.<br />
