The selection of appropriate proximity measures is one of the crucial success factors of content-based visual information retrieval. In this area of research, proximity measures ar...
Relationships are an integral part of the design of a database. Comparing and integrating relationships from heterogeneous databases requires that the relationships be mapped to ea...
It has been claimed that topic metadata can be used to improve the accuracy of text searches. Here, we test this claim by examining the contribution of metadata to effective search...
We study the complexity of approximating the smallest eigenvalue of −∆ + q with Dirichlet boundary conditions on the d-dimensional unit cube. Here ∆ is the Laplacian, and th...
Accurate prediction of pseudoknotted nucleic acid secondary structure is an important computational challenge. Prediction algorithms based on dynamic programming aim to find a st...
