Query Personalization is the process of dynamically enhancing a query with related user preferences stored in a user profile with the aim of providing personalized answers. The un...
We examine the problem of evaluating selection queries over imprecisely represented objects. Such objects are used either because they are much smaller in size than the precise on...
In high-dimensional and complex metric spaces, determining the nearest neighbor (NN) of a query object ? can be a very expensive task, because of the poor partitioning operated by...
In this paper, we present an original network graph embedding to speed-up distance-range and k-nearest neighbor queries in (weighted) graphs. Our approach implements the paradigm ...
