The query equivalence problem has been studied extensively for set-semantics and, more recently, for bag-set semantics. However, SQL queries often combine set and bag-set semantic...
This work introduces distance-based criteria for segmentation of object trajectories. Segmentation leads to simplification of the original objects into smaller, less complex primi...
We present a region-based active contour detection algorithm
for objects that exhibit relatively homogeneous photometric
characteristics (e.g. smooth color or gray levels),
embe...

In this paper, we consider approximation algorithms for optimizing a generic multi-variate homogeneous polynomial function, subject to homogeneous quadratic constraints. Such opti...
A family of permutations in Sn is k-wise independent if a uniform permutation chosen from the family maps any distinct k elements to any distinct k elements equally likely. Effici...
