Abstract The modular decomposition of a symmetric map delta:X x X -> Upsilon (or, equivalently, a set of pairwise-disjoint symmetric binary relations, a 2-structure, or an edge-colored undirected graph) is a natural construction to capture key features of delta in terms of a labeled tree. A map delta is explained by a vertex-labeled rooted tree (T, t) if the label delta(x, y) coincides with the label of the lowest common ancestor of x and y in T, i.e., if delta(x, y) = t(lca(x, y)). Only maps whose modular decomposition does not contain prime nodes, i.e., the symbolic ultrametrics, can be explained in this manner. Here we consider rooted median graphs as a generalization of (modular decomposition) trees to explain symmetric maps. We derive a linear-time algorithm that stepwisely resolves prime vertices in the modular decomposition tree to obtain a rooted and labeled median graph that explains a given symmetric map delta.
