We investigate the problem of approximate similarity (nearest neighbor) search in high-dimensional metric spaces, and describe how the distance distribution of the query object ca...
In this paper, we motivate four di erent user de ned window query classes and derive a probabilistic model for each of them. For each model, we characterize the e ciency of spatia...

We interpret non-negative matrix factorization geometrically, as the problem of finding a simplicial cone which contains a cloud of data points and which is contained in the posi...
