Internet computing technologies, like grid computing, enable a weak computational device connected to such a grid to be less limited by its inadequate local computational, storage,...
In this work we consider ontologies as knowledge structures that specify terms, their properties and relations among them to enable knowledge extraction from texts. We represent o...
Recent advances in 3D graphics technologies have led to an increasing use of processing techniques on 3D meshes, such as filtering, compression, watermarking, simplification, defor...
We study the problem of navigating through a database of similar objects using comparisons. This problem is known to be strongly related to the small-world network design problem....
Nearest neighbor query is one of the most important operations in spatial databases and their application domains, e.g., locationbased services, advanced traveler information syst...
