Abstract. This article presents a novel method for acquiring high-quality solid models of complex 3D shapes from multiple calibrated photographs. After the purely geometric constra...
In many image or video retrieval systems, the search of similar objects in the database includes a spatial access method to a multidimensional feature space. This step is generall...
The ability to store and query uncertain information is of great benefit to databases that infer values from a set of observations, including databases of moving objects, sensor r...
The ability to compute top-k matches to XML queries is gaining importance due to the increasing number of large XML repositories. The efficiency of top-k query evaluation relies o...
Efficiently and accurately searching for similarities among time series and discovering interesting patterns is an important and non-trivial problem. In this paper, we introduce a...
