Stand-alone ranking systems based on highly optimized inverted file structures are generally considered `the' solution for building search engines. Observing various developm...
Skyline queries have gained a lot of attention for multicriteria analysis in large-scale datasets. While existing skyline algorithms have focused mostly on exploiting data dominan...
We propose a partitioning scheme for similarity search indexes that is called Maximal Metric Margin Partitioning (MMMP). MMMP divides the data on the basis of its distribution pat...
