: Can Grover’s algorithm speed up search of a physical region—for example a 2-D grid of size √ n × √ n? The problem is that √ n time seems to be needed for each query, j...
Abstract. Advances in web technology have given rise to new information retrieval applications. In this paper, we present a model for geographical region search and call this class...
For nearest neighbor search, a user queries a server for nearby points of interest (POIs) with his/her location information. Our aim is to protect the user’s sensitive informatio...
The Edinburgh Mouse Atlas aims to capture in-situ gene expression patterns in a common spatial framework. In this study, we construct a grammar to define spatial regions by combina...
The immense explosion of geographically referenced data calls for efficient discovery of spatial knowledge. One critical requirement for spatial data mining is the capability to ...
