Abstract: Hypergraph matching algorithms have better matching accuracy at the cost of exponentially increased computation resources. Recent kd-tree-based approximate nearest neighbor (ANN) methods represent the compatibility between two hypergraphs as a sparse tensor, which still requires exhaustive calculation for large-scale graph matching problems. To decrease the computation for the large-scale hypergraph matching problem, this work proposes a CUR-based cascaded framework to generate the sparse compatibility tensor by decreasing the calculated compatibility between two graphs. The framework includes a CUR-based second-order graph matching algorithm, a fiber CUR-based tensor generation method, and a PRL-based hypergraph matching algorithm that is specifically suitable for sparse tensors. The experiment results show that the proposed cascaded framework requires much fewer computation resources and can effectively deal with larger-scale graph-matching problems.
