In this paper we present a scalable and distributed access structure for similarity search in metric spaces. The approach is based on the Content– addressable Network (CAN) parad...
When performing hierarchical clustering, some metric must be used to determine the similarity between pairs of clusters. Traditional similarity metrics either can only deal with s...
Abstract. The task of similarity search is widely used in various areas of computing, including multimedia databases, data mining, bioinformatics, social networks, etc. For a long ...
A near-planar object seen from different viewpoints results in differently deformed images. Under some assumptions, viewpoint changes can be modeled by affine transformations. Sh...
The problem of identifying approximately duplicate objects in databases is an essential step for the information integration process. Most existing approaches have relied on gener...
