Second-order random graphs for modelling sets of attributed graphs and their application to object learning and recognition

The aim of this article is to present a random graph representation, that is based on second-order relations between graph elements, for modeling sets of attributed graphs (AGs). We refer to these models as Second-Order Random Graphs (SORGs). The basic feature of SORGs is that they include both marg...

We refer to these models as Second-Order Random Graphs (SORGs). The basic feature of SORGs is that they include both marginal probability functions of graph elements and second-order joint probability functions.
