We present a new 3D shape descriptor based on conformal geometry. Our descriptor is invariant under non-rigid quasi-isometric transformations, such as pose changes of articulated ...
Exhibiting new features and likely related matching techniques to efficiently retrieve images from databases remains an open problem. This paper is first devoted to such a novel d...
Visualization of non-vectorial objects is not easy in practice due to their lack of convenient vectorial representation. Representative approaches are Kernel PCA and Kernel Laplac...
Given an object q, modeled by a multidimensional point, a reverse nearest neighbors (RNN) query returns the set of objects in the database that have q as their nearest neighbor. I...
Query processing in traditional information management systems has moved from an exact match model to more flexible paradigms allowing cooperative retrieval by aggregating the dat...
