Siamese networks for Poincaré embeddings and the reconstruction of evolutionary trees
We present a method for reconstructing evolutionary trees from high-dimensional data, with a specific application to bird song spectrograms. We address the challenge of inferring phylogenetic relationships from phenotypic traits, like vocalizations, without predefined acoustic properties. Our approach combines two main components: Poincar\'e embeddings for dimensionality reduction and distance computation, and the neighbor joining algorithm for tree reconstruction. Unlike previous work, we employ Siamese networks to learn embeddings from only leaf node samples of the latent tree. We demonstrate our method's effectiveness on both synthetic data and spectrograms from six species of finches.
