Local2Global

Python implementation of the local2global patch embedding synchronisation method used in [1]. This code uses embeddings for a set of overlapping patches as input and aligns them to obtain a global embedding. The alignment step is based on the eigenvector synchronisation method of [2].

Installation

The local2global package can be installed using pip. Simply run

pip install git+https://github.com/LJeub/Local2Global.git@master

Usage

For more information see the documentation.
