Kernels on Bags of Fuzzy Regions for Fast Object retrieval
We propose in this paper a general kernel framework to deal with database object retrieval embedded in images with heterogeneous background. We use local features computed on fuzz...

Generating fuzzy semantic metadata describing spatial relations from images using the R-histogram
Automatic generation of semantic metadata describing spatial relations is highly desirable for image digital libraries. Relative spatial relations between objects in an image conv...

Fractals for Secondary Key Retrieval
In this paper we propose the use of fractals and especially the Hilbert curve, in order to design good distance-preserving mappings. Such mappings improve the performance of secon...

Hardware Acceleration for Spatial Selections and Joins
Spatial database operations are typically performed in two steps. In the filtering step, indexes and the minimum bounding rectangles (MBRs) of the objects are used to quickly dete...
