Constellations and the Unsupervised Learning of Graphs
Abstract. In this paper, we propose a novel method for the unsupervised clustering of graphs in the context of the constellation approach to object recognition. Such method is an E...

Generalized vs Set Median Strings for Histogram-Based Distances: Algorithms and Classification Results in the Image Domain
We compare different statistical characterizations of a set of strings, for three different histogram-based distances. Given a distance, a set of strings may be characterized by it...

Image Classification Using Marginalized Kernels for Graphs
We propose in this article an image classification technique based on kernel methods and graphs. Our work explores the possibility of applying marginalized kernels to image process...

Approximating TSP Solution by MST Based Graph Pyramid
The traveling salesperson problem (TSP) is difficult to solve for input instances with large number of cities. Instead of finding the solution of an input with a large number of c...

Grouping Using Factor Graphs: An Approach for Finding Text with a Camera Phone
Abstract. We introduce a new framework for feature grouping based on factor graphs, which are graphical models that encode interactions among arbitrary numbers of random variables....

Hierarchy Construction Schemes Within the Scale Set Framework
Segmentation algorithms based on an energy minimisation framework often depend on a scale parameter which balances a fit to data and a regularising term. Irregular pyramids are de...

Computing Homology Group Generators of Images Using Irregular Graph Pyramids
We introduce a method for computing homology groups and their generators of a 2D image, using a hierarchical structure i.e. irregular graph pyramid. Starting from an image, a hiera...

Bipartite Graph Matching for Computing the Edit Distance of Graphs
In the field of structural pattern recognition graphs constitute a very common and powerful way of representing patterns. In contrast to string representations, graphs allow us to ...
