Modeling objects by probability density functions (pdf) is a new powerful method to represent complex objects in databases. By representing an object as a pdf, e.g. a Gaussian, it...
Large sensor networks are being widely deployed for measurement, detection, and monitoring applications. Many of these applications involve database systems to store and process d...
We introduce a family of kernels on discrete data structures within the general class of decomposition kernels. A weighted decomposition kernel (WDK) is computed by dividing objec...
Vocabularies to describe research findings are needed to effectively use scientific databases. As understanding of data evolves, scientists need tools for extending the vocabulari...

In this paper we examine 1) the scope of geo-ontologies used especially for the purposes of information retrieval on the Web, 2) the core geographical concepts and their mutual re...
