A complete authentication system based on fusion of 3D face and hand biometrics is presented and evaluated in this paper. The system relies on a low cost real-time sensor, which c...
In this paper, we study a novel form of continuous nearest neighbor queries in the presence of obstacles, namely continuous obstructed nearest neighbor (CONN) search. It considers...
Good cardinality estimates are critical for generating good execution plans during query optimization. Complex predicates, correlations between columns, and user-defined functions...
Accurate cardinality estimation is critically important to high-quality query optimization. It is well known that conventional cardinality estimation based on histograms or simila...
