Abstract. Peer Data Management Systems (PDMSs) have been recently proposed as an evolution of Peer-To-Peer (P2P) systems toward a more semantics-based description of peers' co...
Searching in decentralized peer-to-peer networks is a challenging problem. In common applications such as Gnutella, searching is performed by randomly forwarding queries to all pee...
In this paper, we present the results of our work that seeks to negotiate the gap between low-level features and highlevel concepts in the domain of video shot detection. We intro...
The exponential growth of data demands scalable infrastructures capable of indexing and searching rich content such as text, music, and images. A promising direction is to combine...
In several information retrieval (IR) systems there is a possibility for user feedback. Many machine learning methods have been proposed that learn from the feedback information in...
