In this study, we investigate a machine learning approach to reconstruct lineage trees in experimental systems based on mutating synthetic genomic barcodes. We refine previously proposed methodology by embedding information of higher level relationships between cells and single-cell barcode values into a feature space. We test performance of the algorithm on shallow trees (up to 100 cells) and deep trees (up to 10 000 cells). Our proposed algorithm can improve tree reconstruction accuracy in comparison to reconstructions based on a maximum parsimony method, but this comes at a higher computational time requirement.  \nINTRODUCTION  \nSingle-cell lineage tracing, reconstructing the relationship between individual dividing cells in a tissue or organism, has the potential to improve our understanding ofmany biological processes, including the major transitions in evolution (1), development from the founding zygote to a complex organism (2), stem cell properties in tissue (3), cancer cell differentiation (4) or metastasis (5), and pathways of tumour evolution (6) .  \nThe first full development lineage tree was traced for the embryonic cells of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans by sketching the events of cell division and development histories observed directly through light microscopy (7) . Recently, platforms based on cell barcoding were proposed for tracking the lineage of individual cells at a high resolution. An integrase-based synthetic barcode system, intMEMOIR, uses the serine integrase Bxb1 to perform ir-  \nreversible random modification of DNA recording arrays that can be read out using fluorescence in situ hybridization imaging (8) . Fluorescent reporter assays allow the rapid characterization of these recording units (9) . This experimental system is coupled with a time-lapse movie of the cells as they divide to provide a ground truth lineage tree (8) . Another technique, substitution mutation-aided lineage tracing (SMALT) system, used a 3-kb readout sequence with 16 iSceI binding motifs to map single-cell resolution cell phylogenies during organ development (10) . Additional strategies to achieve lineage tracing at single-cell resolution have been developed in the past few years: integration barcodes (designed as short DNA fragments placed in an expressed locus) and polylox barcodes (comprising a DNA cassette with multiple loxP sites in alternating orientations) (11) . These, and future, technical advancements have to be matched by progress in relevant computational methods (12) .  \nVarious statistical methods for reconstructing gene trees and species trees (13, 14) have been developed over the last few decades, but these methods have not been widely used on time and individual-cell resolved datasets. Mutations induced by cell barcoding methods are irreversible, which is different from the somatic mutations accumulated during mitotic cell division (8) .
