—As databases increasingly integrate different types of information such as multimedia, spatial, time-series, and scientific data, it becomes necessary to support efficient retri...
We present generative models dedicated to face recognition. Our models consider data extracted from color face images and use Bayesian Networks to model relationships between diffe...
Data mining aims at extraction of previously unidentified information from large databases. It can be viewed as an automated application of algorithms to discover hidden patterns a...
We describe the integration of a structuredtext retrieval system (TextMachine) into an object-oriented database system (OpenODB). We use the external function capability of the da...
Abstract. In this paper we report on a feasibility study in reengineering legacy systems towards a model-driven architecture (MDA). Steps in our approach consist of (1) parsing the...
