Pervasive computing refers to an emerging trend towards numerous casually accessible devices connected to an increasingly ubiquitous network infrastructure. An important challenge...
—We investigate the problem of retrieving similar shapes from a large database; in particular, we focus on medical tumor shapes (“Find tumors that are similar to a given patter...
We propose a method to measure similarity of shape for 3D objects using 3-dimensional shape subspaces produced by the factorization method. We establish an index of shape similarit...
For content level access, very often database needs the query as a sample image. However, the image may contain private information and hence the user does not wish to reveal the ...
Time series stored as feature vectors can be indexed by multidimensional index trees like R-Trees for fast retrieval. Due to the dimensionality curse problem, transformations are ...
