Given a set of points P and a query point q, the reverse furthest neighbor (RFN) query fetches the set of points p P such that q is their furthest neighbor among all points in P {...
This paper improves recent methods for large scale image search. State-of-the-art methods build on the bag-of-features image representation. We, first, analyze bag-of-features in t...
This paper addresses the efficient processing of similarity queries in metric spaces, where data is horizontally distributed across a P2P network. The proposed approach does not r...
Despite the existence of obstacles in many database applications, traditional spatial query processing utilizes the Euclidean distance metric assuming that points in space are dire...
