Existing work on similar sequence matching has focused on either whole matching or range subsequence matching. In this paper, we present novel methods for ranked subsequence match...
Spatial databases support a variety of geometric queries on point data such as range searches, nearest neighbor searches, etc. Balanced Aspect Ratio (BAR) trees are hierarchical sp...
We prove the existence of an algorithm A for computing 2-d or 3-d convex hulls that is optimal for every point set in the following sense: for every set S of n points and for ever...
We study two fundamental static data structure problems, membership and perfect hashing, in Yao's cell probe model. The first space and bit probe optimal worst case upper bou...
We prove that the lines tangent to four possibly intersecting convex polyhedra in 3 with n edges in total form Θ(n2 ) connected components in the worst case. In the generic ca...
