Abstract. Aggregate window queries return summarized information about objects that fall inside a query rectangle (e.g., the number of objects instead of their concrete ids). Tradi...
In contrast to a large body of theoretical work on computer systems, distributed systems are not idealised constructions, unconstrained by physical world limitations. They must be...
The quadratic form distance (QFD) has been utilized as an effective similarity function in multimedia retrieval, in particular, when a histogram representation of objects is used...
A research prototype is presented for semantic indexing and retrieval in Information Retrieval. The prototype is motivated by a desire to provide a more efficient and effective in...
Abstract. We present an approach for articulated motion detection and pose estimation that uses only motion information. To estimate the pose and viewpoint we introduce a novel mot...
