Joint manifold distance: a new approach to appearance based clustering by Fitzgibbon, AW, Zisserman, A

“…To this end we have developed a joint manifold distance (JMD) which measures the distance between two subspaces, where each subspace is invariant to a desired group of transformations, for example affine warping of the image plane. The JMD may be seen as generalizing invariant distance metrics such as tangent distance in two important ways. …”

Investigating the inner controls on explosive eruptions using textural analyses and petrology by Bernard, Olivier

“…First, I focus on the Rabaul caldera system (Papua-New-Guinea) where effusive, strombolian, vulcanian and sub-plinian eruptions occured in the past 120 years without any noticeable chemical changes in the magma compositions. I find that slight changes in the pre-eruptive state of the magma such as phenocryst-content and exsolved volatile contents influenced magma ascent rates and subsequent eruption styles. …”
