With modern LiDAR technology the amount of topographic data, in the form of massive point clouds, has increased dramatically. One of the most fundamental GIS tasks is to construct...
High dimensional data sets are encountered in many modern database applications. The usual approach is to construct a summary of the data set through a lossy compression technique...
Similarity search usually encounters a serious problem in the high dimensional space, known as the “curse of dimensionality”. In order to speed up the retrieval efficiency, p...
Manifold learning methods are promising data analysis tools. However, if we locate a new test sample on the manifold, we have to find its embedding by making use of the learned e...
