The R*-tree, as a state-of-the-art spatial index, has already found its way into commercial systems like Oracle. In this paper, we aim at improving query performance of the R*tree...
Discovering coherent gene expression patterns in time-series gene expression data is an important task in bioinformatics research and biomedical applications. In this paper, we pr...
A novel objective full-reference image quality assessment metric based on symmetric geometric moments (SGM) is proposed. SGM is used to represent the structural information in the...
This paper proposes a hash function family based on feature vocabularies and investigates the application in building indexes for image search. Each hash function is associated wi...
Similarity search is widely used in multimedia retrieval systems to find the most similar ones for a given object. Some similarity measures, however, are not metric, leading to e...
