In this paper, the problem of residual variance estimation is examined. The problem is analyzed in a general setting which covers non-additive heteroscedastic noise under non-iid s...
A method is presented that uses an Approximate Nearest Neighbor method for determining correspondences within the Iterative Closest Point Algorithm. The method is based upon the k...
Affordable, fast computers with large memories have lessened the demand for program efficiency, but applications such as browsing and searching very large databases often have rat...
Spatial databases support a variety of geometric queries on point data such as range searches, nearest neighbor searches, etc. Balanced Aspect Ratio (BAR) trees are hierarchical sp...
The R*-tree, as a state-of-the-art spatial index, has already found its way into commercial systems like Oracle. In this paper, we aim at improving query performance of the R*tree...
