Visual codebook based quantization of robust appearance descriptors extracted from local image patches is an effective means of capturing image statistics for texture analysis and...
Vertical partitioning is a well-known technique for optimizing query performance in relational databases. An extreme form of this technique, which we call vectorization, is to sto...

Background: Sequence comparisons make use of a one-letter representation for amino acids, the necessary quantitative information being supplied by the substitution matrices. This ...
We study suitable indexing techniques to support efficient exact match search in large biological sequence databases. We propose a suffix tree (ST) representation, called STA-DF, ...
