Traditional indexes aim at optimizing the node accesses during query processing, which, however, does not necessarily minimize the total cost due to the possibly large number of r...
In this paper, we propose two new support vector approaches for ordinal regression, which optimize multiple thresholds to define parallel discriminant hyperplanes for the ordinal...
This paper addresses the problem of compensating for lateral chromatic aberration in digital images through colour plane realignment. Two main contributions are made: the derivati...
The problem of trajectory similarity has been recently attracted research interest considerably, due to its importance in diverse fields. In this work, we study trajectory similar...
Middleware-based database replication protocols require few or no changes in the database engine. As a consequence, they are more portable and flexible than kernel-based protocols...
