Qualitative polyline similarity testing with applications to query-by-sketch, indexing and classification
We present an algorithm for polyline (and polygon) similarity testing that is based on the double-cross formalism. To determine the degree of similarity between two polylines, the...

Rectifying Non-Euclidean Similarity Data Using Ricci Flow Embedding
Similarity based pattern recognition is concerned with the analysis of patterns that are specified in terms of object dissimilarity or proximity rather than ordinal values. For man...
