The dream of pervasive multimedia retrieval and reuse will not be realized without incorporating semantics in the multimedia database. As video data is penetrating many informatio...
Retrieving music from large digital databases is a demanding computational task. The cost for indexing and searching depends not only on the computational effort of measuring music...
We study the following problem: how to efficiently find in a collection of strings those similar to a given query string? Various similarity functions can be used, such as edit dis...
We have developed a web-based search engine for 3D polygonal models. These days, the number of web sites using Web 3D technology is increasing. The development of our search engin...
Searching for similar objects in metric-space databases can be efficiently solved by using index data structures. A number of alternative sequential indexes have been proposed in...
