On the Geodesic Distance in Shapes K-means Clustering

Abstract: In this paper, the problem of clustering rotationally invariant shapes is studied and a solution using Information Geometry tools is provided. Landmarks of a complex shape are defined as probability densities in a statistical manifold. Then, in the setting of shapes clustering through a K-means algorithm, the discriminative power of two different shapes distances are evaluated. The first, derived from Fisher–Rao metric, is related with the minimization of information in the Fisher sense and the other is derive… Show more

“…A major advantage of Hash-Combs when compared to classic techniques [29] [20] is that our approach is not limited to Euclidean data spaces, where distances represent the shortest path between two points along a straight line. In fact, Hash-Combs are also suitable for approximating non-Euclidean geodesic distances [37], which have applications to network security [38], to tracing paths on 3D mesh objects [39], to clustering [40] and training Machine Learning models [41]. Revisiting the example in Figure 4, we can define a simple distance measure based on an element-wise equality check.…”

“…A Riemannian metric given in [22] is adopted here with Differential Geometry since deployment area is manifold with probability distributions. Riemannian metric A with differential manifold would be brought by matrix f, which describes an internal product on each and every single tangent area of manifold for example.…”

“…The Fisher-Rao distance between multivariate normal distributions in specific cases, such as distributions with a common mean, was considered in diffusion tensor image analysis [29][30][31], in color texture discrimination in several classification experiments [32], in the problem of distributed estimation fusion with unknown correlations [33], and in the machine learning technique [34]. In [35,36], the authors described shapes representing landmarks by a Gaussian model with diagonal covariance matrices and used the Fisher-Rao distance to quantify the difference between two shapes. In [17], this model was applied to statistical inference.…”
