On the correspondence between replicator dynamics and assignment flows

Assignment flows are smooth dynamical systems for data labeling on graphs. Although they exhibit structural similarities with the well-studied class of replicator dynamics, it is nontrivial to apply existing tools to their analysis. We propose an embedding of the underlying assignment manifold into...

Description
Summary:Assignment flows are smooth dynamical systems for data labeling on graphs. Although they exhibit structural similarities with the well-studied class of replicator dynamics, it is nontrivial to apply existing tools to their analysis. We propose an embedding of the underlying assignment manifold into the interior of a single probability simplex. Under this embedding, a large class of assignment flows are pushed to much higher-dimensional replicator dynamics. We demonstrate the applicability of this result by transferring a spectral decomposition of replicator dynamics to assignment flows.
