Branch taken rate and transition rate have been proposed as metrics to characterize the branch predictability. However, these two metrics may misclassify branches with regular his...
This paper presents the results of classifying Arabic text documents using the N-gram frequency statistics technique employing a dissimilarity measure called the "Manhattan di...
Abstract. Comparison of images requires a distance metric that is sensitive to the spatial location of objects and features. Such sensitive distance measures can, however, be compu...
In this paper we propose diffusion distance, a new dissimilarity measure between histogram-based descriptors. We define the difference between two histograms to be a temperature f...
The design of a CBR system involves the use of similarity metrics. For many applications, various functions can be adopted to compare case features and to aggregate them into a glo...
