Abstract

This paper reviews two continuous methods for graph matching: Softassign and Replicator Dynamics. These methods can be applied to non-attributed graphs, but considering only structural information results in a higher ambiguity in the possible matching solutions. In order to reduce this ambiguity, we propose to extract attributes from non-attributed graphs and embed them in the graph-matching cost function, to be used as a similarity measure between the nodes in the graphs. Then, we evaluate their performance within the reviewed graph-matching algorithms.
