The Sum-over-Paths Covariance Kernel: A Novel Covariance Measure between Nodes of a Directed Graph
—This work introduces a link-based covariance measure between the nodes of a weighted directed graph where a cost is associated to each arc. To this end, a probability distributi...

Expandable Data-Driven Graphical Modeling of Human Actions Based on Salient Postures
This paper presents a graphical model for learning and recognizing human actions. Specifically, we propose to encode actions in a weighted directed graph, referred to as action gra...

Approximate maximum weight branchings
We consider a special subgraph of a weighted directed graph: one comprising only the k heaviest edges incoming to each vertex. We show that the maximum weight branching in this su...

On the K-simple shortest paths problem in weighted directed graphs
We obtain the first approximation algorithm for finding the k-simple shortest paths connecting a pair of vertices in a weighted directed graph. Our algorithm is deterministic an...

Finding shortest non-trivial cycles in directed graphs on surfaces
Let D be a weighted directed graph cellularly embedded in a surface of genus g, orientable or not, possibly with boundary. We describe algorithms to compute a shortest non-contrac...

A family of dissimilarity measures between nodes generalizing both the shortest-path and the commute-time distances
This work introduces a new family of link-based dissimilarity measures between nodes of a weighted directed graph. This measure, called the randomized shortest-path (RSP) dissimil...

A link classification based approach to website topic hierarchy generation
Hierarchical models are commonly used to organize a Website's content. A Website's content structure can be represented by a topic hierarchy, a directed tree rooted at a...

Determining Topology in a Distributed Camera Network
Recently, `entry/exit' events of objects in the field-of-views of cameras were used to learn the topology of the camera network. The integration of object appearance was also...
