The cumulative distribution function (cdf) of a sum of correlated or even independent lognormal random variables (RVs), which is of wide interest in wireless communications, remain...
Spatial Database Management Systems (SDBMS), e.g., Geographical Information Systems, that manage spatial objects such as points, lines, and hyper-rectangles, often have very high ...
We present an experimental evaluation of an approximate distance oracle recently suggested by Thorup [1] for undirected planar graphs. The oracle uses the existence of graph separa...
Adaptable similarity queries based on quadratic form distance functions are widely popular in data mining application domains including multimedia, CAD, molecular biology or medica...
We prove that any one-pass streaming algorithm which ( , )-approximates the kth frequency moment Fk, for any real k = 1 and any = 1 m , must use 1 2 bits of space, where m is th...
