AS-Index is a new index structure for exact string search in disk resident databases. It uses hashing, unlike known alternate structures, tree or trie based, and indexes every n-g...
We investigate code trees and search trees with cost functions that increase exponentially with the depth in the tree. While corresponding coding theorems have been considered in ...
We present a novel algorithm, Compact Kd-Trees (CompactKdt), that achieves state-of-the-art performance in searching large scale object image collections. The algorithm uses an or...
In evaluating the performance of online algorithms for search trees, one wants to compare them to the best offline algorithm available. In this paper we lower bound the cost of an...
Data mining applications analyze large collections of set data and high dimensional categorical data. Search on these data types is not restricted to the classic problems of minin...
