Structured light vision systems have been successfully used for accurate measurement of 3-D surfaces in computer vision. However, their applications are mainly limited to scanning ...
Many applications depend on efficient management of large sets of distinct strings in memory. For example, during index construction for text databases a record is held for each d...
Set similarity join has played an important role in many real-world applications such as data cleaning, near duplication detection, data integration, and so on. In these applicati...
Many applications operate on time-sensitive data. Some of these data are only valid for certain intervals (e.g., job-assignments, versions of software code), others describe tempor...
Equi-depth histograms represent a fundamental synopsis widely used in both database and data stream applications, as they provide the cornerstone of many techniques such as query ...
