Earth mover's distance (EMD for short) is a perceptually meaningful dissimilarity measure between histograms. The computation of EMD reduces to a network flow optimization pro...
We introduce a new realistic input model for geometric graphs and nonconvex polyhedra. A geometric graph G is local if (1) the longest edge at every vertex v is only a constant fa...
In the last decades, a large family of algorithms supervised or unsupervised; stemming from statistic or geometry theory have been proposed to provide different solutions to the p...
Let (V, δ) be a finite metric space, where V is a set of n points and δ is a distance function defined for these points. Assume that (V, δ) has a constant doubling dimension d...
We present a combinatorial characterization of the Bethe entropy function of a factor graph, such a characterization being in contrast to the original, analytical, definition of th...
