  4. Directed Graphs A directed graph is a pair (I, A), where I is a set of nodes and A is a set of ordered pairs of nodes.

  5. Paths • A path is a sequence t1, t2, …, tk of distinct nodes in the graph, such that (ti, ti+1)  A for 1  i k – 1. • A path is trivial if k = 1; • Path    denotes the concatenation of two paths,  and , where  ends at t and  begins at t. • Path  =   s, t denotes theconcatenation of the longest prefix  of  and the last arc (s, t).

  6. Path Costs • A path-cost function is a mapping that assigns to each path  a cost (), in some ordered set  of cost values. • A function  is said to be monotonic-incremental (MI) when (t) = h(t), (  s, t) = ()  (s, t),where h(t) is a handicap cost value and  satisfies: x’  x  x’  (s, t)  x’  (s, t) and x  (s, t)  x,for x, x’   and (s, t)  A.

  7. Examples of MI Cost Functions • Additive cost function sum(t) = h(t), sum(  s, t) = sum() + w(s, t),where w(s, t) is a fixed non-negative arc weight. • Max-arc cost function max(t) = h(t), max(  s, t) = max{max(),w(s, t)}, where w(s, t) is a fixed arc weight.

  8. Predecessor Map and Spanning Forest • A predecessor map is a function P that assigns to each node t I either some other node in I, or a distinctive marker nil  I – in which case t is the root of the map. • A spanning forest is a predecessor map which takes every node to nil in a finite number of iterations (i.e., it contains no cycles).

  9. Paths of the Forest P • For any node t I, there is a path P*(t) which is obtained in backward by following the predecessor nodes along the path. P*(c) = a, b, c, where P(c) = b, P(b) = a, P(a) = nil P*(i) = i, where P(i) = nil

  10. Optimum-path Forest An optimum-path forest is a spanning forest P, where (P*(t)) is minimum for all nodes t I. Consider cost function sum in the example below.

  11. An Image as a Directed Graph • A grayscale image I is a pair (I, I), where I is a finite set of pixels (points in Z2) and I assigns to each pixel t I a value I(t) in some arbitrary value space. • An adjacency relation A is a binary relation between pixels of I, which is usually translation-invariant. • Once A has been fixed, image I can be interpreted as a directed graph, whose nodes are the image pixels in I and whose arcs are defined by A.

  12. Seed Pixels In some applications, we would like to use a predefined path-cost function  but constrain the search to paths that start in a given set SI of seed pixels. This constraint can be modeled by defining
