Update indexing of LICA nodes for larger graphs #16

Open glstott opened 2 years ago

glstott commented 2 years ago

Currently, larger trees run into an index length limit which prevents more basal nodes from being uploaded correctly. There are a few potential solutions to this problem I would like to explore:

I may have found a solution! This preprint by chaudhury et al. discusses a slightly different approach for generating TAG nodes. It solves two problems, the indexing (they use bitstrings on load), and the order dependence (which is a problem I only recently encountered with generating clades). I'll keep reading, but this may fix both major issues! There will still be an upper limit to what is indexable, 256,000 bits, but that seems reasonable. I'll keep working on it.
