  The authors present an algorithm and workflow for the inference of developmental trajectories from single-cell data, including a mathematical approach to increase computational efficiency. In this latest version, the authors addressed the benchmarking of the novel method, but the absence of quantitative comparisons to state-of-the-art methods still make this study incomplete. Based on the shown validation approaches, one can neither ultimately judge if the shown method will be an advance over previous work nor whether the approach will be of general useful applicability.
