In this study, we propose two algorithms for measuring the distance between shape boundaries. In the algorithms, shape boundary is represented by the Beam Angle Statistics (BAS), w...
We investigate the problem of searching similar multiattribute time sequences. Such sequences arise naturally in a number of medical, financial, video, weather forecast, and stoc...
We consider the problem of estimating CPU (distance computations) and I/O costs for processing range and k-nearest neighbors queries over metric spaces. Unlike the specific case ...
Programming assignments are easy to plagiarize in such a way as to foil casual reading by graders. Graders can resort to automatic plagiarism detection systems, which can generate...
