Index structures are designed to optimize search performance, while at the same time supporting efficient data updates. Although not explicit, existing index structures are typica...
—Relevance feedback(RF) has been proved to be an effective way to improve the precision and recall of 3D model retrieval. However, the existing RF approaches do not consider whic...
The widespread adoption of XML has led to programming languages that support XML as a first class construct. In this paper, we present a method for analyzing and optimizing impera...
