In this paper we propose diffusion distance, a new dissimilarity measure between histogram-based descriptors. We define the difference between two histograms to be a temperature f...
Background: Many molecules are flexible and undergo significant shape deformation as part of their function, and yet most existing molecular shape comparison (MSC) methods treat t...
Ageometric framework for the recognition of three-dimensional objects represented by point
clouds is introducedin this paper. The proposed approach is based on comparing distribut...
Many computer vision algorithms make use of local features, and rely on a systematic comparison of these features. The chosen dissimilarity measure is of crucial importance for th...
The earth mover's distance (EMD) [16] is an important perceptually meaningful metric for comparing histograms, but it suffers from high (O(N3 log N)) computational complexity...
