Structural Pattern Recognition with Graph Edit Distance (eBook, PDF)

Approximation Algorithms and Applications

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This unique text/reference presents a thorough introduction to the field of structural pattern recognition, with a particular focus on graph edit distance (GED). The book also provides a detailed review of a diverse selection of novel methods related to GED, and concludes by suggesting possible avenues for future research. Topics and features: formally introduces the concept of GED, and highlights the basic properties of this graph matching paradigm; describes a reformulation of GED to a quadratic assignment problem; illustrates how the quadratic assignment problem of GED can be reduced to a linear sum assignment problem; reviews strategies for reducing both the overestimation of the true edit distance and the matching time in the approximation framework; examines the improvement demonstrated by the described algorithmic framework with respect to the distance accuracy and the matching time; includes appendices listing the datasets employed for the experimental evaluations discussedin the book.

Rezensionen

"The book presents the use of graphs in the field of structural pattern recognition. ... The book is written in a very accessible fashion. The author gives many examples presenting the notations and problems considered. The book is suitable for graduate students and is an ideal reference for researchers and professionals interested in graph edit distance and its applications in pattern recognition." (Krzystof Gdawiec, zbMATH 1365.68004, 2017)

"This book is exactly about this fascinating topic: the definition, the study of properties, and the areas of application of the graph edit distance in the realm of structural pattern recognition. ... The book's intended audience is advanced graduate students in science and engineering, but also professionals working in relevant fields." (Dimitrios Katsaros, Computing Reviews, computingreviews.com, August, 2016)
