This paper shows a way to speed up search by using an encoding at bit level to model a particular domain. A bitboard is an unsigned integer whose bits have been given an interpret...
Uncertainty pervades many domains in our lives. Current real-life applications, e.g., location tracking using GPS devices or cell phones, multimedia feature extraction, and sensor...

In this paper we propose a novel document retrieval model in which text queries are augmented with multi-dimensional taxonomy restrictions. These restrictions may be relaxed at a ...

This paper proposes a semantic overlay based on the small world phenomenon that facilitates efficient search for information retrieval in unstructured P2P systems. In the semantic...
Graphs are prevailingly used in many applications to model complex data structures. In this paper, we study the problem of supergraph containment search. To avoid the NP-complete s...
