CHistogramIntersectionKernel Class Reference


Detailed Description

The HistogramIntersection kernel operating on realvalued vectors computes the histogram intersection distance between sets of histograms. Note: the current implementation assumes positive values for the histograms, and input vectors should sum to 1.

It is defined as

\[ k({\bf x},({\bf x'})= \sum_{i=0}^{l} \mbox{min}(x^{\beta}_i, x'^{\beta}_i) \]

with $\beta=1$ by default
