Database search for images containing icons with specific mutual spatial relationships can be facilitated by an appropriately structured index. For the case of images containing s...
Many evolving database applications warrant the use of non-traditional indexing mechanisms beyond B+-trees and hash tables. SP-GiST is an extensible indexing framework that broade...
Index structures are designed to optimize search performance, while at the same time supporting efficient data updates. Although not explicit, existing index structures are typica...
Efficiently and accurately searching for similarities among time series and discovering interesting patterns is an important and non-trivial problem. In this paper, we introduce a...
Previous studies have presented convincing arguments that a frequent pattern mining algorithm should not mine all frequent patterns but only the closed ones because the latter lea...
