Binary search trees are a fundamental data structure and their height plays a key role in the analysis of divide-and-conquer algorithms like quicksort. Their worst-case height is l...
Urban Search And Rescue (USAR) is a time critical task. Rescue teams have to explore a large terrain within a short amount of time in order to locate survivors after a disaster. O...
Multivariate Time Series (MTS) data are widely available in different fields including medicine, finance, bioinformatics, science and engineering. Modelling MTS data accurately is...
We revisit one of the most fundamental classes of data structure problems in computational geometry: range searching. Back in SoCG’92, Matouˇsek gave a partition tree method fo...
We present an index structure for managing weightedsequences in large databases. A weighted-sequence is defined as a two-dimensional structure where each element in the sequence i...
