— Programming to exploit the resources in a multicore system remains a major obstacle for both computer and software engineers. Transactional memory offers an attractive alternat...
We present a novel matching and similarity evaluation method for planar geometric shapes represented by sets of polygonal curves. Given two shapes, the matching algorithm randomly...
Many emerging application domains require database systems to support efficient access over highly multidimensional datasets. The current state-of-the-art technique to indexing hi...
Searching and extracting meaningful information out of highly heterogeneous datasets is a hot topic that received a lot of attention. However, the existing solutions are based on e...
We develop a framework for the automatic discovery of query classes for query-class-dependent search models in multimodal retrieval. The framework automatically discovers useful q...
