Injectivity, stability, and positive definiteness of max filtering
share
Given a real inner product space V and a group G of linear isometries, max filtering offers a rich class of G-invariant maps. In this paper, we identify nearly sharp conditions under which these maps injectively embed the orbit space V/G into Euclidean space, and when G is finite, we estimate the map's distortion of the quotient metric. We also characterize when max filtering is a positive definite kernel.
