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...
This paper proposes an adaptive system for video news story tracking based on the Earth Mover’s Distance (EMD). When an interesting story appears in the news, it is flagged man...
We present a new algorithm for a robust family of Earth Mover’s Distances - EMDs with thresholded ground distances. The algorithm transforms the flow-network of the EMD so that t...
Nonnegative Matrix Factorization (NMF) approximates a given data matrix as a product of two low rank nonnegative matrices, usually by minimizing the L2 or the KL distance between ...
The Earth Mover Distance (EMD) between two equalsize sets of points in Rd is defined to be the minimum cost of a bipartite matching between the two pointsets. It is a natural metr...
