Computer vision researchers have recently proposed several local descriptor schemes. Due to lack of database support, however, these descriptors have only been evaluated using sma...
The main research in the area of image databases addresses the improvement of retrieval quality and the speedup of the query processing. A number of image retrieval systems reache...
We devise a method for automatically detecting treatment relationships using lexico-syntactic patterns and its application to medical-oriented patent retrieval. This process for d...
Abstract-- We introduce join scheduling algorithms that employ a balanced network utilization metric to optimize the use of all network paths in a global-scale database federation....
