Despite of the fact that large line segment datasets are appearing more and more frequently in numerous applications involving spatial data, such as GIS 8, 9] multimedia 6] and ev...
Abstract. Query optimization is an important functionality of modern database systems and often based on estimating the selectivity of queries before actually executing them. Well-...
Optimizing queries that involve operations on spatial data requires estimating the selectivity and cost of these operations. In this paper, we focus on estimating the cost of spat...
Analysis of range queries on spatial (multidimensional) data is both important and challenging. Most previous analysis attempts have made certain simplifying assumptions about the...
We consider the problem of segmentation of images that can be modelled as piecewise continuous signals having unknown, non-stationary statistics. We propose a solution to this pro...
