I recently (2005-11-18) found out that my Erdös Number is (at most) 5. Thanks to Daniel for pointing that out to me.

Here's the path of length 5 (Erdös - Ivic - Hafner - Breuel - Keysers - Deselaers):

  1. Erdös, Paul; Ivic, Aleksandar: Estimates for sums involving the largest prime factor of an integer and certain related additive functions. Studia Sci. Math. Hungar. 15 (1980), no. 1-3, 183--199.
  2. Hafner, James Lee; Ivic, Aleksandar: On the mean-square of the Riemann zeta-function on the critical line. J. Number Theory 32 (1989), no. 2, 151--191.
  3. Niblack, Wayne; Zhu, Xiaoming; Hafner, James L.; Breuel, Tom; Ponceleon, Dulce B.; Petkovic, Dragutin; Flickner, Myron D.; Upfal, Eli; Nin, Sigfredo I.; Sull, Sanghoon; Dom, Byron E.; Yeo, Boon-Lock; Srinivasan, Savitha; Zivkovic, Dan; Penner, Mike: Updates to the QBIC system. Proc. SPIE Vol. 3312, p. 150-161, Storage and Retrieval for Image and Video Databases VI, 1997.
  4. D. Keysers and T. Breuel. Optimal Line and Arc Detection on Run-Length Representations. In GREC 2005, Sixth International IAPR Workshop on Graphics Recognition. Hong Kong, China, pages 17-23, August 2005.
  5. Daniel Keysers, Michael Motter, Thomas Deselaers and Hermann Ney. Training and Recognition of Complex Scenes using a Holistic Statistical Model. Proceedings DAGM 2003, Pattern Recognition, 25th DAGM Symposium. Volume 2781 of Lecture Notes in Computer Science. pages 52-59. Magdeburg, Germany. September 2003.
Another path is over Andrew Zisserman: Paul Erdös - Peter C. Fishburn - D. Marc Kilgour - Richard I. Hartley - Andrew Zisserman - Thomas Deselaers
