The distance join is a spatial join that finds pairs of closest objects in the order of distance by associating two spatial data sets. The distance join stores node pairs in a pri...
—We present a new access method, called the path dictionary index (PDI) method, for supporting nested queries on object-oriented databases. PDI supports object traversal and asso...
This paper presents a generic features selection method and its applications on some document analysis problems. The method is based on a genetic algorithm (GA), whose tness funct...
The focus of this paper is to show that the E-C-A paradigm offers an excellent approach for specifying the behavior of context-aware information push services. Such a service enabl...
—The paper provides a sensitivity analysis to measure the loss in accuracy induced by perturbations affecting acyclic computational flows composed of linear convolutions and nonl...
