Efficient evaluation of spatial join is an important issue in spatial databases. The traditional evaluation strategy is to perform a join of “minimum bounding rectangles” (mbr...
We present a novel method to estimate an approximation of the reflectance characteristics of optically thick, homogeneous translucent materials using only a single photograph as ...
In this paper we suggest viewing images (as well as attacks on them) as a sequence of linear operators and propose novel hashing algorithms employing transforms that are based on ...
A function on n variables is called a k-junta if it depends on at most k of its variables. In this article, we show that it is possible to test whether a function is a k-junta or ...
Many large-scale networks such as ad hoc and sensor networks, peer-to-peer networks, or the Internet have the property that the number of independent nodes does not grow arbitrari...
