		<Abstract>The purpose of this paper is to extend the definition of Fr&#039;echet distance which measures the distance between two curves to a distance (Fr&#039;echet-Like distance) which measures the similarity between two rooted trees.&lt;br /&gt;In this paper, I prove that the Fr&#039;echet-Like distance between two trees is SNP-hard to compute.&lt;br /&gt; Later, I modify the definition of Fr&#039;echet-Like distance to measure the distance between two merge trees, and I prove the relation between the interleaving distance and the modified Fr&#039;echet-Like distance.</Abstract>
