We consider the problem of joining massive datasets. We propose two techniques for minimizing disk I/O cost of join operations for both spatial and sequence data. Our techniques o...
Nearest neighbor (NN) search in high dimensional feature space is widely used for similarity retrieval of multimedia information. However, recent research results in the database ...
This paper presents a general model for estimating access times of serpentine tape drives. The model is used to schedule I/O requests in order to minimize the total access time. W...
We have a large database consisting of sales transactions. We investigate the problem of online mining of association rules in this large database. We show how to preprocess the d...
We present a method for extracting boundary surfaces from segmented cross-section image data. We use a constrained Potts model to interpolate an arbitrary number of region boundar...
