Approximate earth mover's distance in linear time
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...

The Earth Mover's Distance as a Metric for Image Retrieval
We investigate the properties of a metric between two distributions, the Earth Mover's Distance (EMD), for content-based image retrieval. The EMD is based on the minimal cost ...

Automated Image Annotation Using Global Features and Robust Nonparametric Density Estimation
This paper describes a simple framework for automatically annotating images using non-parametric models of distributions of image features. We show that under this framework quite ...

EMD-L1: An Efficient and Robust Algorithm for Comparing Histogram-Based Descriptors
We propose a fast algorithm, EMD-L1, for computing the Earth Mover's Distance (EMD) between a pair of histograms. Compared to the original formulation, EMD-L1 has a largely si...

Differential EMD Tracking
Illumination changes cause object appearance to change drastically and many existing tracking algorithms lack the capability to handle this problem. The Earth Mover's Distanc...
