- Clustering plays an indispensable role for data analysis. Many clustering algorithms have been developed. However, most of them suffer either poor performance of unsupervised lea...
We present a novel indexing schema that provides eļ¬cient nearest-neighbor queries in multimedia databases consisting of objects described by multiple feature vectors. The beneļ¬...
With the proliferation of multimedia data, there is an increasing need to support the indexing and searching of high-dimensional data. In this paper, we propose an efficient indexi...
ā Many image compression techniques require the quantization of multiple vector sources with signiļ¬cantly different distributions. With vector quantization (VQ), these sources ...
Abstract--The Lagrangian formulation of variable-rate vector quantization is known to yield useful necessary conditions for quantizer optimality and generalized Lloyd algorithms fo...
