Shift-invariant linear algorithms can be described completely by the algorithm's response to an impulse input. The so called impulse response can be used as filter kernels wh...
View materialization is known to be a valuable technique for performance optimization in relational databases, and much work has been done addressing the problem of consistently m...
We propose to utilize micro features, namely facial marks (e.g., freckles, moles, and scars) to improve face recognition and retrieval performance. Facial marks can be used in thr...
Nearest neighbor query is one of the most important operations in spatial databases and their application domains, e.g., locationbased services, advanced traveler information syst...
Data Warehouses and On-Line Analytical Processing systems rely on a multidimensional model that includes dimensions, hierarchies, and measures. Such model allows to express users&...
