A string similarity join finds similar pairs between two collections of strings. It is an essential operation in many applications, such as data integration and cleaning, and has ...
Existing niching techniques commonly use the Euclidean distance metric in the decision space for the classification of feasible solutions to the niches under formation. This approa...
In this paper, we describe how to use geodesic energies defined on various sets of objects to solve several distance related problems. We first present the theory of metamorphoses ...
A voting rule is an algorithm for determining the winner in an election, and there are several approaches that have been used to justify the proposed rules. One justification is t...

We present a new histogram distance family, the Quadratic-Chi (QC). QC members are Quadratic-Form distances with a cross-bin χ2 -like normalization. The cross-bin χ2 -like normal...
