On the Earth Mover's Distance as a histogram similarity metric for image retrieval
In this paper, the performance of the Earth Mover’s Distance (EMD) vs χ2 distance as histogram similarity metrics for image retrieval is evaluated experimentally. Ground truth ...

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 ...

Fast and Robust Earth Mover's Distances
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...
