The dimensionality curse has profound e ects on the effectiveness of high-dimensional similarity indexing from the performance perspective. One of the well known techniques for im...
We consider the problem of improving named entity recognition (NER) systems by using external dictionaries--more specifically, the problem of extending state-of-the-art NER system...
Efficient user-adaptable similarity search more and more increases in its importance for multimedia and spatial database systems. As a general similarity model for multi-dimension...
Similarity retrieval mechanisms should utilize generalized quadratic form distance functions as well as the Euclidean distance function since ellipsoid queries parameters may vary...
Subsequence similarity matching in time series databases is an important research area for many applications. This paper presents a new approximate approach for automatic online s...
