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 ...

Circular Earth Mover's Distance for the comparison of local features
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...

Differential Earth Mover's Distance with Its Applications to Visual Tracking
The Earth Mover's Distance (EMD) is a similarity measure that captures perceptual difference between two distributions. Its computational complexity, however, prevents a direc...

A Linear Time Histogram Metric for Improved SIFT Matching
We present a new metric between histograms such as SIFT descriptors and a linear time algorithm for its computation. It is common practice to use the L2 metric for comparing SIFT d...

Texture-based Image Retrieval without Segmentation
Image segmentation is not only hard and unnecessary for texture-based image retrieval, but can even be harmful. Images of either individual or multiple textures are best described...
