The optimal settings of retrieval parameters often depend on both the document collection and the query, and are usually found through empirical tuning. In this paper, we propose ...
—Existing methods for spatial joins require pre-existing spatial indices or other precomputation, but such approaches are inefficient and limited in generality. Operand data sets...
—Scenarios are increasingly recognized as an effective means for eliciting, validating, and documenting software requirements. This paper concentrates on the use of scenarios for...
This paper presents a new 3-D subband coding framework that is able to achieve a good balance between high compression performance and channel error resilience. Various data transf...
We investigate the application of genetic algorithms (GAs) for recognizing real two-dimensional (2-D) or three-dimensional (3-D) objects from 2-D intensity images, assuming that th...
