N2 - This paper suggests a new measure of symmetry for bifurcating structures, which relies not only on topology and ordering, but also on quantitative properties (e.g. length of branches). This measure is based on the amount of energy required to symmetrize the structure, hence is especially suitable to biological structures. It is tested by its ability to differentiate between two classes of leaves.
