In high-dimensional and complex metric spaces, determining the nearest neighbor (NN) of a query object ? can be a very expensive task, because of the poor partitioning operated by...
Given a 3D solid model S represented by a tetrahedral mesh, we describe a novel algorithm to compute a hierarchy of convex polyhedra that tightly enclose S. The hierarchy can be b...

We study the problem of clustering uncertain objects whose locations are uncertain and described by probability density functions. We analyze existing pruning algorithms and experi...
Abstract: As web sites are getting more complicated, the construction of web information extraction systems becomes more troublesome and time-consuming. A common theme is the diffi...
Given an ordered labeled forest F ("the target forest") and an ordered labeled forest G ("the pattern forest"), the most similar subforest problem is to find a ...
