The top-k retrieval problem requires finding k objects most similar to a given query object. Similarities between objects are most often computed as aggregated similarities of the...
We revisit one of the most fundamental classes of data structure problems in computational geometry: range searching. Back in SoCG’92, Matouˇsek gave a partition tree method fo...
We propose a query formulation language, called MashQL for querying and mashing up structured data on the web. The novelty of MashQL is that it does not require...
To formulate a meaningful query on semistructured data, such as on the Web, that matches some of the source’s structure, we need first to discover something about how the infor...
In this paper we propose two methods to derive two different kinds of node similarities in a network based on their neighborhood. The first similarity measure focuses on the overla...
